get rid of the white flashes when loading a flash

Everyone knows it... the little white flash when loading a flash into your website... and it get really on our nerves....

Well finally i managed to find a very little trick.. it is so easy i feel ashamed i did not come up with it further..

just add the wmode="transparent" to the object (and of course the same to the embed part) and you have no more flashes. Of course you should check if the background is working accordingly and does not add aditional problems..

Found a problem with that. If you are using the flash in a frame and part of the flash will be hidden when you resize the window smaller, then the flash is not working properly, meaning you can not use the mouse over it (for example if it is a menu).. you need to remove the wmode again.
