Ok it worked...but this brings me to a bigger problem. Ok...Here is what i'm doing...and what i want to do:
First...i am using Flash and Swish and all this stuff to make a lower 3rd on a video..so i am NOT USING HTML!!! Now..what i want to do is on a lower 3rd of the screen, a box come up with some neat affects that come in and stuff...I understand how to make the backround transparent for HTML..but is it possible to make it transparent on the .swf? I am importing the .swf directly into my program (Final Cut Pro 3)..any ideaz?

umm

all this other stuff 3d video
Is that going to be on a lower z level?

and what format are we talking about here?

Because your not going to be able to load a video format (avi, mpeg, real, etc) below an swf

i don't know....I use Final Cut Pro..and i can import .swf's into it and it will play it. I am wanting to put a .swf animation in it, but i don't want a solid colored backround on the .swf. I want a transparent backround. make sence?
