Hi all,

This has probably nothing to do with Drupal but I'm running out of ideas.

I have this code in the body of a node:

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="338" height="20">
   <param name="movie" value="/flash/test.swf" />
   <param name="quality" value="high" />
  <param name="WMODE" value="Transparent" />
   <embed src="/flash/test.swf"  wmode="transparent" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="100" height="20"></embed></object>

When viewed on a XP machine transparency is just fine on Firefox 2 and IE 7 (Fash player 9)
When I view the same node on a linux machine (Unbuntu 6) with Firefox 2, Fash player 9, I have no
background transparency on the flash object.

Any clues ?

Thanks.

Full screen mode and transparency on Linux do not work yet. One of the reasons that I had to use this

These guys have a hack to layer divs on top of swf.

Unfortunately it doesn't look like it corrects the transparency issue.

Drupal is a perfectly cromulent word.
