Ok guys. I have seen this done. Maybe it's not the right forum for this but I don't know how it's done. I have seen flash advertisements that stay at one browser coordinate regardless of scrolling or resizing. The ad goes over the html on the page whether it's text or an image. It's not a popup. I think it might be some type of include file. I want to make my flash stay at the footer of a page no matter where you scroll. Does ANYONE have more information on how to do this? Thank you guys in advance! :thumb:

Cant you just split the html in two (in frontpage), then leave the SWF file in the bottom part.

The user can scroll the top part while keeping the bottom untouched.

Well its a good enough solution, if you cant find another :D

OK. I it's not for an advertisement. I have a transparent flash file (so you can see behind it) and a little cartoon/avatar guy that says something. When he goes away, you can select the text behind it or whatever is there. It's for training/tutorial stuff. I don't do flash ads. I do training software. But the same stuff. I can't split it into frames. The Project Manager wants to be able to put it on any of our training pages. THANKS!!!

eeee... split the HTML in two? I believe you're referring to frames, which... I don't care if I get flamed, I hate frames. Anyway, I don't think you want to go the frames route, A) because frames are bad for many reasons and B) it's not going to do quite what you're talking about.

On another note, what you're talking about I believe is either a client-side issue or a flash issue. Try posting in those forums.

Oh, and btw... I don't know how to solve your problem. :D Thought I should mention that.

EDIT: Gahhh! I should refresh the page more often.

This is clientside. <div style="position:fixed; bottom:48; text-align:center;"><embed></div>

Something like that should work.
