	How to make a Mix-FX text effect stop from looping in Flash?
	After you have loaded the effect through the loadmovie command, you should add 59 frames and add an "unloadMovie" and "Stop" action in the 60th frame. Add an additional layer and create a textfield with the same font and text, and position this textfield exactly on top of the Mix-FX effect. Alternatively, you can use a Mix-FX effect with the "standard" text effect settings. In case the Mix-Effect effect fades out you must move the textfield a couple of frames to the left. So what happens is that, after the Mix-FX effect has played once, it will be removed from the timeline and replaced by the textfield you just created.

For example width="800" height="100%"

	How to make the SWF file transparent to add a background picture directly in HTML?
