Html Background Help
sorry, didn't know where to post this.

how is a HTML background done? like when you have one tiny 10x10 pixel bitmap with for example a faint diagonal line and have it repeated over the whole thing so it looks like you've got a large detailed image instead of in reality a tiny image thats just repeated through code.

also does anyone know the code for resizeing it to fit the page, etc...

thx, squid.

Background In HTML
I know some of Flash, but nothing of Dreamweaver. Several questions I can route to my tech guy...
1. Is there a way to make the Flash presentation take up the entire screen?
2. If not, can I change the background--there's a white frame.
3. How do I center it? When I publish, I check the center boxes, but it always appears in upper left corner taking up the majority, but not all of the browser window, which is white. My flash movie is another color. So it all looks pretty ugly right now.

HTML Background
I have this:

currentPhoto = _root[_root.collection + _root.activeStyle + "photo"];
loadMovie(currentPhoto,img);

to change the background of the SWF file. Now what I need is a way to change the background of the HTML file containing the SWF with the same image. In other words, something that will allow me to say that the HTML background=currentPhoto from the SWF file

Thanks!

Different Background Colours (SWF And HTML): Why?
Hi.

I apologise if this has an obvious answer, but I can't figure this out.

My SWF is embedded in an HTML page, and both have backgrounds of 000033. This displays perfectly on my Mac, but on PCs the SWF's background appears slightly lighter.

The same applies if I try to use alternative colours, publish for different flash versions, and even if I tile a 10x10 pixel bitmap as the background.

Does this mean that SWFs are a bit lighter on PCs?

Is this a known issue, or am I being stupid?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Tiled Html Background
i've been viewing some of the forums regarding this subject, but i must be having a brain fart or something....i've been entering this code in the HTML bit...
<body bgcolor="#000000" background="cover/the_image.gif">
except i haven't used the cover bit because i was under the impression that i should put the name of the folder that the .gif is in.. ie.
<body bgcolor="#000000" background="what_ever_folder/bg.gif">
i just end up getiing the first color specified in the code..ie #000000
i've tried using using other extensions and i'm reaching a dead end...seems like such an easy task...
anyone know?
:confused

Match Background To Html
I've searched and searched for an answer to this. Why does the Flash hex color and the html hex color not match? Same exact color, but on some monitors, the color shifts. (of course it's perfect on mine)

I tried a one pixel background, no dice.
tried the same hex color in param name="BGCOLOR", still no luck.

I just need it to match!!
See an example: TEST

Please help!

Thanks,

Flash As HTML Background
Hi,

I know this has been covered before, but I can't get the suggested methods to work. I have followed the instructions from here: http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash5/dhtmlflash.htm
I basically want to do the opposite of that, i.e. I want the Flash under the text, not on top of it. I thought I could just change the Zindex of the Flash to 0, or -1, but it didn't work.

I'm using Flash MX 2004 Pro, although I doubt that makes much difference as I think the solution will lie in the HTML.

Thanks.

Emulate Html Background?
Is it possible to emulate an html image background in a sense?
By that I mean - an image loads seperately into the background behind a flash file's main movies, and fills the entirety of the viewer's window space.
That seems to be the question I am faced with at the moment, and would love to move on ahead knowing it, though it is such a simple thing.
Thank you in advance, hopefully I can be of assistance in the future...

.swf Background In Html Page
I have a application that loads into a html page.
What I would like is for the background color to be a certain color (is there any way to have a .swf as a background color in a html page. / specifically a full scale color while the app stays the same size.

I guess one way could be to make a fullscale layer=0 and then load the app into the second layer=1, but then there is the issue of sizing?

Can anyone help me out, thanks for your time and energy

Don't Want Flash Doc Background In Html
Could someone please help me

I have a flash document swf and html to export into dreamweaver.
In flash document dimensions are set to 1280 by 1024.
This what my display properties sceen resolution is set to.
I have the flash movie set to the same size as the document but when I publish and open the html in dreamweaver there is the document background color around the swf movie. No matter what settings i use there still is a 5 pixels odd of document background which looks like a border.
I have tried to adjust in the publish settings dialog box the Dimensions settings to 100% and also scale. No luck. etc
How do I get rid of the background . I would like the swf to take up all of the width of the html page. No borders.

Thanks for your help

FLA Background Does Not Match HTML
Hi,
I have an index.html with a background and a flash movie covering the majority of the page. I can't find how to make the background in the FLA transparent and in order to avoid the white background of the FLA I put the same background in the movie as I used on the HTML page. But the borders are clearly visible and look unprofessional.
Is there a way to avoid this border effect?

Background Swf Doesn't Let HTML Through.... ?
So, I'm using an swf as a background for a div.

I've got 2 divs in the HTML page, one for the swf, and one for the HTML content.

Using CSS, I position them on top of each other, and set the z-index so that the swf is in the background.

So far it works fine.... but if I switch to another tab.. then switch back.. you can see it glitching. It only flashes the HTML as it updates.

Has anyone had this kind of problem?

Html/css Background Flash Help
I seriously need some help. I am somewhat new to flash and need some help as soon as possible (ANY REPLY will be greatly appreciated). I submitted an earlier post under the topic "masking a fading image," but no one has replied (I didn't mean for it to sound ignorant or retarded, but I'm just trying to find the right words to accomplish what I'm trying to do. I will break the entire task down into more appropriate topics and take it one step at a time.

My first step is as follows: I've created a flash movie file that I would like to set as the background in an html page. Is this possible? I do know when I publish the flash as a transparent web page, I can view the source, copy that, and integrate it into the html page I want to create (with a background color ="#000000") as long as the flash file is saved within the directory of the web content. However, the code (since it is transparent) seems to be just placed on the html page (on the foreground), and the animation will hover over any links or pics that are also place within the page. Is there a way to set the whole flash file in the background of the html page, so it doesn't seem to hover over other content? Thank you ahead of time.

HTML Background And SWF Don't Line Up Correctly
This is driving me nuts!

I have tried adjusting it several ways over the last 2 days and just can't seem to make it work.

Here are some screenshots to show what is happening:

I'm sure some of you must have run into this problem before and figured out a cure.
I would be eternally grateful if anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong or what the solution is.
