Replying to nickmealey
I am 90% sure this is possible by using layered span's and div's, I have not tested or looked on the internet but in theory seems like it would work.

Im not sure if it is possible. But if it is possible, remember that flash files are large, and if every time someone visits your homepage, their browser has to download that file, you bandwidth will be gone in an instant.
This would use a massive amount of bandwidth!!
You would be beter off trying an animated gif (i have never tried this but i asume you could).

if you really need flsh for interactivity, you could create a page where the flash take up the whole page, then use CSS to position <div> s over the flash object.

I too think you should just make the whole site in flash, you can have links in a flash object.

I have an idea:

You might use div tag in that tabel cell with realtive positioning, so the div can be placed on the specific flash....

It might look like this:

HTML
<td>
<object> //the flash content - with wmode=transparent param sett!
....
</object>
<div style="position: relative; top: -50px; left: -30px; z-index: 1000;"><!--divs content--></div>
</td>


You might use this algorithm in this situation.
Please reply if succeeded...

Flash Movie As Background?

You have great idea! To use flash as background... And it's simple to do :) In web everything is possible - don't forget it! So.. Read it and try it..

1. Make flash movie (using Adobe Flash for example <try Swish it's easier>)
2. Then save it as .Swf movie for example mybackground.Swf
3. Download this software "SWF-AVI-GIF Converter" (sorry you must buy it :<)
4. Use it! :D
5. Use your new .Gif file for background!

FLASH in Background with DIVs on top
Flash Movie As Background?

Hi all... So all day today I have been searching for answers to this FLASH as a background issue...



Is it possible? YES AND NO



FIRST thing to note... If you want to make it possible for a DIV to appear over top of FLASH, aside from using z-index to layer them properly you also MUST add the WMODE="transparent" or WMODE="opaque" parameter to the flash embed code...



Knowing that it was supposed to be possible I made an ambitious attempt at creating a site that has several Divs on top of Divs on top of Divs all over top of Flash... And well without trying to explain the strange problems I came across - ill show you the link:



Any opinions on why the browser has problems with redraw here greatly appreciated



You can see the site at: http://www.Gradolabs.Com/hollow/sparkPageM.Htm



I know its not the cleanest code in the world... But it almost works?!

Desperately looking for solutions here

No need for that, you can just easily integrate your content as part of the flash animation and background. Also, I discourage that as completely Flash based websites are relatively impractical, and lags most of the time. Not a good choice for sites with heavy content, professional or corporate sites. Its more for design showcase sites. Cheers.
