display a swf with transparent background

[tiki16]

Hello,
I am trying to place a swf on my page over top of a background image. I can position it with absolute positio in css. I am trying to get it to display with a transparent background using png images in my swf.

Is there a way I can create the swf without a background color so the swf
is capable of displaying the background in the page?
thanks
Steve

in flash, go to File>Publish Settings. click on the html tab, and select "transparent windowsless" where it says Window mode.

HI, i tried that but there is no way in the property tab under background color to choose transparent? There is still a colored background?
thanks

is there a background on the stage, or is the stage blank? if there is a background on the stage. either remove it or make it transparent by editting is alpha to zero
