Ugly white background??

[Toowoomba]

Hi,

I've placed my swf-file insite a html-page using dreamweaver.
Whenever the page loads it first displays an ugly white background (for less than a second) before the flashmovie actually starts. Any ideas how to get rid of this?
The Background of the swf is black; background of the htmlpage is black too !

Thanx for your help, Toowoomba.

Hi,

Change the background of your movie to black (don't just colour it black).
Try making making it transparent and windowless when you publish it.
Try it on different platforms and browsers, it might just be the browser clearing space on the page.

cheers.

publish settings: transparent windowless - that's it !
Thanx a million.

Hi,
