How do I get rid of the white/grey border when rendering Flash in a browser?

Hi

Here is a basic flash question:

How do I get rid of the white border to a flash when displayed on a black page?

I have created as simple an example as I possibly can!

OK I have a Xara (Xtreme Pro v5) file that is 800x600 pixels.
I have created just a single frame of that size.
I then exported to a flash file ("test.swf").

My HTML page looks like this:

>>>>>

<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">

</style></head>
<body><br />
<BR />
<BR /> 
<div align="center">
<object width="800" height="600">
<embed src="test.swf" width="800" height="600"> </embed>
</object>
</div>
</body>
</html>

>>>>>

As you can see, I've made the page background black.
But when a browser renders the actual page:

...as you can see there is a grey border!

Are you sure your rectangle hasn't a line width applied?

You can attached your .xar file to you post if you'd like it looked at.

Thanks Sledger - yes the problem appears to be that my background rectangle had a line width - albeit a transparant line.

I find this is very deceptive, and as far as I know NOT the way Xara exports images! Basically thee stated size of the rectangle (in Xara) was precisely 800 x 600 pixels, but it seems that when it comes to *exporting* a flash file, it suddenly adds on the width of the transparent line bordering the rectangle!

Pah! [mutter, mutter]
