When I hover the mouse button over my flash objects in IE there is a grey rectangle around the object.
If I click on the object it goes away.
Is there anyway of getting rid of this?

Tks,


ps: my flash objects are, a slideshow and a text animation.

Can we see your code ??
Are you using the <embed> tag ?

Here it is!
Thanks.


<div id="layer4">
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="328" height="243" id="SlideShow.swf" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain">
<param name="movie" value="SlideShow.swf">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF">
<param name="wmode" value="opaque">
<param name="menu" value="false">
<embed src="SlideShow.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" width="328" height="243" name="SlideShow.swf" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">

</object></div>

Ok, first you have to get rid of the <embed> tag, it will cause IE users problems. You can find several methods for replacing it in this thread:

That in itself will likely get rid of the gray box. Are you using stylesheets ?

Hi, thanks, I looked at those links...

I have tried getting rid of the EMBED tag but IE still has shows a grey rectangle around it when I hover over it.


Yes I am using a StyleSheet. Would that influence things?

It might. What does your CSS look like ?

Hello Bansaw !

Just have a look on this http://classicwebsites.org/tutorials..._tutorials.htm which i have found while browsing for flash tutorials.

Hope this solves your problem...............

It's not a problem with the Flash. If we could see the actual code and css, we might be able to figure out what's going on.
