When i export my button and open it in dreamweaver i get the white backgorund workspace, how do i get rid of tha leaving just the movie part

Export your button to GIF or PNG, only this formats can manage an alpha channel (for the web at least)

I recomend to export it to PNG, use a graphic app (like photoshop or fireworks) and export it to GIF with alpha transparency.

when you publish the button go to publish settings and click on the html tab, click the drop down box where it says 'window mode' and select 'tranparent windowless'.
Now open the html file in dreamweaver and copy the html code for the button, then just paste this in place on the main website you are editing!

Hope this ameks sense to you!

The problem your suggestion Hereje, is that a png file wont allow animation and some people - like me - just prefere using flash on sites as aposed to gifs...

when your in publish settings on the formats tab click on the folder icon next to both flash and html and you can define where they are saved and what their title is. Make sure you save both files in the same place - i have a flash folder on the desktop - that way things become a lot less complicated.
