You make the flash file transparent in the emed tag as a paramater. If you use the SWFObject javascript embed technique there is an example of how to do this within the downloaded files.

Hi,

I see that Stage.height and .width are read-only. How do I set them in AS?
I wish to start with certain dimensions, and change them on the run.

Thanks,

TZ
