Fla-shop.com F.A.Q.

To use an image as a background of the map, do the following:

1. Make the background of the map transparent.

2. Wrap the Locator Map embedded HTML code with any <DIV> tag that has a background image.

3. In the Locator Map embedded HTML code add the “wmode: transparent” parameter as follows:

SWFObject code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
	var params = {
	wmode: "transparent"
	};
	swfobject.embedSWF("locator_map.swf", "Map", "500", "400", "9.0.0", "", "", params);
</script>

Non-SWFObject code:

...
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
...
