How can I embedd the color of the rest of the site into the flash movie so a white box does not appear in the opening sequence?

to embed a color??? first of all you can't embed colors in flash.
second of all the white box appears because the flash player is actually
started by the browser, so you can't do anything about it, anyway... if you
don't have anything else that laods in the first frame, there is no problem
because it doesn't take that much for the flash player to start.
i hope the answer was useful

Change your background color to something other than white.

All you need to do is go to your html file where the swf is placed and set that table, or page bg to another colour, presumably your swf's bg colour.

yes you can - search these forums as this has been asked and answered several times - edit your html
file after you publish from flash:

<param name="bgcolor" value="#000000">
//or whatever color value you wish.

hope this helps.

I had the same problem for almost a month before I had someone help me out.
I'm guessing that your are putting the .swf file into a page in a program like
dreamweaver. If you look at your code you probably don't have the color
embedded into the file. So for example my code looks like this
<param name="movie" value="../images/headernavy.swf">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<param name="bgcolor" value="#9bcdb2">
Notice the last line has the color in it. Check your file and see if that
line is missing. Sometimes when you publish the file it leaves out the bgcolor.
