White box at beginning of movie

Question

I have an animated header that is 750 X 150. When I open up
the site where I have it, a white box of that same size flashes on,
then the movie plays. How can I get rid of the white box?
Thanks, Brad

Most of the questions in here has been asked before, it is
simply counter productive to post
replies to same topics over and over again. The forum is
filled up with extra data and it become
more tedious for you to allocate any thread. If you web based
user, you need to go back few pages
to find your original post. For News Server users,
unnecessary threads to download.
Wasting bandwidth.
Not to mention wasting the participants time. Why ? because
instead of entertaining your problem
which could be really urgent (deadline), we will be dealing
with posts which should not be here in
the first place only because the user is too lazy to do his
half and prefer everything server
on a silver platter. We take the threads by the order they
come thinking each is equality urgent
and important. It makes you wait longer as we shuffle through
more than 200 posts each day.
Again, waste our time to post same things over and over again
rather than focus on unique issues
that hasn't been yet documented.
Adobe also put huge resources into making online
documentation and maintaining the knowledge base
as well as forums. People type that stuff for a reason and
its pure waste not to try to find it
but ask for someone else to point it to you.
Last not least, the forum posting policies clearly state that
it should be your last
resource after exhausting available documentation from
attached help files, online forum
archives, read me files etc...

By posting here, every user agreed to respect and follow the
rules. It's not a nazi camp and no
one will chase you with a stick and police you to obey. We
expect common sense and common
decency and some understanding of some basic social dynamics,
as we all here for a the same reason.
Respect people who help you and make it easier for us to help
you.
For me personally, and I don't speak on behalf of anyone
else, it always seem very selfish.
A user needs attention and someone else time just because he
can't be bother to do a little search.
It takes seconds to find stuff, if you can't afford that, why
should we bother to help you ?
You might be new to flash but soon you become more and more
efficient, comfortable enough to start
using it to make living. Than you get a job and a client who
wants it on time. As banal as it seem
now, trust me, you will find it very frustrating that no one
answer your question in 5 days
only because we keep posting "how to open URL from a button",
300 of these every week, than 500 of
the Activation issue with IE and about 100 "pop Up" related
and more and more of these coming each
day while your posts get pushed further and further away.
Anyway,
You have a nice day Realtoast :)
See you around
