how to get rid of white background during flash loads?

hi - can someone please help me w/this?

at http://www.daytradinguniversity.com/dtuindex.htm

There's a white space behind both the swfs while loading I want to get rid of (the top banner type one and the nav buttons) ..

I have both the swf movie background and layer html backgrounds set to dark blue, eg 000033, yet the html page loads up white background while the swfs are loading.

Any ideas on how to get rid of that?

appreciate it .. and I can give feedback on your site(s) too etc ..

maybe you should look into preloaders perhaps do a search on www.macromedia.com www.flashkit.com or www.actionscript.org for one that will work..then just change the background color of your movie to the same as your flash movies in flash MX.

thx infinity ... will a preloader fix the white background? probably.. eg a fast 3k type preloader that then loads the main flashes..

any other ideas? eg is there any kind of background color mgmt tip I can use to get non white-box backgrounds whilst the swf's are loading?

I think if you just add a preloader it should do it..erm in the HTML if you change the property of bgcolor for the movie to the appropriate color (the new color you wnat it to be) it might work.

Hope this helps

I found this by googling.. 6 years after! :eek:
i've got the same problem and adding a preloader doesn't fix it :S
any other solution?

thanks

I have the same problem... :(
