    Tiling html background in Flash form

    I have a small gif that i have tiling in the html background, and i need the flash movie to be transparent so that the background is visible. This is possible only in Explorer, but not in Mozilla, netscape and the like. So my question is not how to make the flash movie transparent. Instead, my question is how can i achieve this tiling effect, without coding it into my html.

    I was thinking of simply making the small gif tile manually in my flash movie, but that would never match exactly with the tiling within the html; so that idea was scrapped.

    I would appreciate some suggestions on how i could go about achieving this effect.

    Take care.

    I don't know any other way other than what you mentioned... good luck... I think you might be struggling to get it to tile exactly with your HTML page..

    For those that have had my same problem, look at this link at macromedia, it's a compatible version for transparency for mozilla.

    You can also set a bitmap as fill in the Color Mixer panel.
