I have an SWF embedded in a table. When it loads in the browser the SWF briefly
flashes white before the preloader begins to load. I have set the color
properties in both the SWF file and in the table cell. Is there a way to change
the color from white to another color?

Is there a default white background? Change the bg to a grey and see if the swf
looks better. If that's the problem and you need a white background for the
movie. make the background dark, but load a white rectangle layer around frame
5, or whenever the action begins.

If this isn't the problem, post a link.

Thanks for your help, but I already figured it out. Here is the code:

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#ve
rsion=9,0,28,0" width="79" height="427">
<param name="movie" value="assets/swf/thmbs.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<embed src="assets/swf/thmbs.swf" width="79" height="427" quality="high"
pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Versio
n=ShockwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
bgcolor="#4B4B4D"></embed>
</object>

I had to add a "bgcolor" to the "embed" tag. Note, for some reason this will
overwrite the background color that is set in the SWF in Firefox.

Thanks again!

Thanks again!
