exit swf in layered html

[anniepbythesea]

hello,
we have a full-screen swf file that is on the top layer of an html layered website. we would like the close button to exit the swf, but not close the html page. What code would we put on the close button? Remember, we don't want the html to clode, just the swf!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks!

you could unload or remove the movieClip.. not sure how you have the .swf set up.

i am not sure how it is set up either. it's on a intranet site...in a layered html file. That's all of the information I have...except that the swf is on the top layer.

hi-

Im not sure how or even IF it can be done through CSS (like unlayering it)

but in the Flash movie itself.. you could make a 'close' button..and have the code

buttonInstance.onRelease = function() {
 removeMovieClip(layeredClip_mc);
};

or possibly look into using some javaScript to adjust/re-write the CSS in the HTML page.

i think unloading the movie would work...in anycase, if it gets figured out, i'll let you know!
