I am trying to add content, such as a photoshopped tables and such in the white area but am a little confused on how to incorperate it into the code listed above...If you dont feel likeing helping on this forum pls leave a link to a tutorial if there is one. I looked on W3C but had no luck.

I don't exactly know much about flash but I would think you would have to seperate the "header" and the "footer" into 2 seperate flash documents and embed them in their places with the necessary html code in between.
Don't hold me to that but that's the way it would seem to me.

Thats sounds about right. I will talk with my falsh guy and see what he can do about that. Becasue yes it seems he has made it one complete flash instead of two. god point...if anyone else has anyother info please reply

so hey, here's the problem:

you're flash movie is opaque and sitting right over the content area, so you need to do as that last guy said, and break them into two separate movies with a big content area in the center.

If you have Dreamweaver you can lay it out simply with table, cells, etc. the top would contain the flash movie for navigation, banner, etc.

the center would contain html that you load...perhaps into a targeted iframe

the bottom would be the line effects you have.

make sense?
