I'm using the "Insert Flash text" within Dreamweaver 4.0.
basically it lets you create a a rollover text effect very easily. Only problem I can't figure out how to make the background to the text transparent insted of a color. this comes in the way when I try to integrated into the page I have as it overlaps the image that's already there. I just want the text to be visible no background around it...
Anyone know how to change that ?
Thanks, Kelly

Add the below into your HTML associated with the .swf
param name="wmode" value="transparent"
With a < before param and a > after transparent"
Works for me!

a caveat about:
param name="wmode" value="transparent"
it only works in ie. netscape doesn't allow for the transparent background. it's usually better to make the background the same colour as the page. if you're just using it for easy rollovers, it might be worth the investment in time to make regular rollovers with gifs/jpgs/pngs instead, as they're more reliable, and less cpu-intensive.
