Does any kind sole know if it is possible to place HTML text on top of a swf, not inside a swf movie?
I ask because I need to make a flash file optermised for search engines, and the only way I can think to do this is to put in HTML text, so Googles little 'bots' can find key words, has anyone got any advice?

google can index .swf's as well. i think you're looking for meta tags and not for placing html on top of your swf.

Thanks rabattski, I knew google can read swf files, but do you know if meta tags are used in optermising a file for search engines?

inktomi is the only major search engine to use meta data for ranking

rather use XML like I did here http://www.pncgrowupgreat.com
much more effective

Instead of trying to put HTML above flash, detect if a search bot is looking at your site and serve HTML content for it to look at instead of flash. I googled and found this: http://tinyurl.com/b74km
