Transparent Flash movie in an iframe, 28/aug/2009, at 12:1 posted by morena

I've had to make a Flash banner embedded in an iframe transparent today on http://www.thomson.co.uk/cruise.html

A few tips on how to:

  • Remove any reference to background colour in the javascript code i.e.'bgcolor', '#ffffff', the bgcolor parameter in the object tag param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" the bgcolor="#ffffff" attribute of the embed tag.
  • add param name="wmode" value="transparent" tag in the oject tag
  • in the javascript loading your movie, change 'wmode', 'window', into 'wmode', 'transparent',
  • add a wmode="transparent" attribute to the embed tag
  • Also in your main page add the allowtransparency="true" attribute to your iframe tag.

All this should work :)

Too many things to tell..so little time and energy to write here
So why on heart do I have a blog??? Because I wanted to build one myself and because I always kept diaries but only for couple of days, so, I am sorry, this is the way I am..
Today I'm celebrating 3 years with Dan..what an amazing thing! It's too good to be true, but luckily for me, it's true and we are also looking for a house to buy which is exciting! :)
Yesterday the guy that used to work before me came to the office and it was so scary! He's applying for a graduate scheme I felt so shitty :( God knows what's going to happen to me :( Which is a shame, I really love it at TR, I love the brand, my job and how much I can learn and grow!
So I can only try very hard to study and learn as much as possible..then I'll be ready for the world!
In the meantime let's keep fingers crossed and hope good things will come my way (to those who wait :)

What I'm working on at the moment..

02nd November 2009 -

I have been very busy with the exercises for the JavaScript course and the W3C Mobile Web Standard Certification and I'm dying to apply my PHP findings I got from the PHP Course to my site!

No time for this at all though! www.friendsofpuglia.org requires lots of editing with new content coming in and lots of improvements on the way. Also, ideally I really should start building the CMS for it and the dynamic site!

Cherry on top of the cake: when are we going to start experimenting with HTML5 and CSS3? I hope soon
