works - but you should make sure to use ” instead of ” in your code snippets.

took me a few minutes to figure why it wasn’t working.

Never mind, thanx anyway, the problem was because of the Milkbox code, I was calling an XML file and I forgot to close one of the html tags.

It’s great, but I still have this little problem: I’m using Milkbox, and when I insert the code, right, the flash object remains in the background, but for some reason, at the top of the page, it shows up a lot of crazy code like (// window.addEvent(’domready’,function(){ //autoplay example $(’autoPlayExample’).addEvent(’click’,function(e) and a lot more…. and it disapears when I get rid of the wmode = transparent tags…

Could anyboy explain to me WHY??? I would realy appreciate your help.

Great tip! For people using SWFObject, just add this line to the code:

so.addParam(”wmode”, “transparent”);

Hope that helps some people out.

I had a problem with this solution, I did exactly what you asked but it didn’t work.
The problem was that I copy/pasted the code from the site and I got these quotes: ” . I had to change from this ” to normal quotes “.

It works now.

You put the code in object tags, it should look like this:

< object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0" width="551" height="136" border="0">
< param name="movie" value="file_name.swf" /> < param name="quality" value="high" /> < param name="wmode" value="transparent">
< embed src="file_name.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="551" height="136" wmode="transparent">< /embed>< /object>

Hi Guys,
I’m struggling to get it to work with indexhibit. I’ve inserted the first part but I don’t understand where to insert the “wmode=?transparent? part?
Where is the embed tag?

thanks
/Martin!
