    You know that you aren't even using swfObject on that page yes?

    If you set the background colour of the flash file, this should sort things out. For your <object> / <embed> method you are using now, set the bgcolor parameter. For swfObject, pass in the hex value after the version you require e.g. var so = new SWFObject("some.swf", "flash", "550", "400", "8", "#000000");

    sorry buddy but i am new to this. the flash file that i have on that page was a banner made by epinoisis magic flare program. here is the code for the object which i have put on my page.

    <td><div align="center">
    <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0" width="800" height="70">
    <param name="movie" value="motto.swf" />
    <param name="quality" value="high" />
    <embed src="motto.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="800" height="70"></embed>
    </object>

    I don't get any white border when I hover over the swf file in either IE6 or firefox 2. I do get a white box when the .swf file is still loading though.

    You can add the following after the <param name="quality" value="high" /> line within the <object> tag

    <param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" />

    and bgcolor="#000000" within the <embed> tag, again after quality="high"

    By the way, the flash file links back to the magic flare site when you click on it. You might want to think about changing that link, or buying the program if that is part of the trial functionality.

    If are are having trouble with implementing swfObject, you might want to search of a tutorial, or read carefully here:
