<object id="f1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="img/flash/spider.swf" width="51" height="300">
<param name="movie" value="img/flash/spider.swf" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
</object>

The above code used to make a flash movie transparent in both IE and Firefox. For some reason, it's stopped working in firefox now, so the movie is not transparent anymore.

Now, one of two things happened. Either I unknowingly changed something in the code, or an update or something ruined the browser's flash player.

Can someone please tell me whether this is the proper way to do it? (I know it won't work in Opera, I don't care about that)

The site that is using the movie is http://www.siteuri.ro

The code looks correct... but is the .swf also exported with transparent settings?

I reinstalled Flash Mx because I know it reinstalls Flash player too. After this, it started working! So it was flash player, though I haven't got a clue what boke it!
