How do I set the background color in swfObject?

I am using swfobject to display some Flash content (please don't tell Steve Jobs) and I need to set the background color of the swfobject content to black so it blends nicely with the black page it is on.

I tried using the following code but it didn't change anything:

<object id="flash" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="900" height="600" bgcolor="#000">

What is the correct way to set the background color to #000000?

Thanks.

Solution

  • I got some help over at the swfobject group on google.

    The key is to add this to both sections of the object code and it solved the problem:

    <param name="bgcolor" value="000000" />
