Is there some trick to getting the transparent setting
to be transparent in the Flash Menu Builder. I click
the setting, add it to VSD and I keep getting a white
background. I just want the button there , no background.
I tried it over and over but no luck. I've tried it in
different browsers, uploaded it, re-synced it etc.

hi Craig,
do you have a link we can look at?
if not look at your html code, it should look similar to this:
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"
codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0"
width="755" height="47" id="CC8051478" align="middle">
<param name="movie" value="mymenu2.swf"/>
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="scale" value="noscale" />
<param name="salign" value="lt" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent"/>
<embed src="mymenu2.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="755" height="47"
wmode=transparent name="CoffeeCup" scale="noscale" salign="lt" align="middle" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /></object>

specifically see if this line is in the code:
<param name="wmode" value="transparent"/>

Hey Bruce , after getting that code example
I compared it and noticed a difference. After
some more trial and error yesterday I got
it corrected. What a relief to get the menu
up and running. I think it gives my site a
cleaner look . Thanks again . http://graybabyboomer.com/
