When you load in an external swf at runtime is there any way to get the background colour of the swf? – That is the stage background colour.
The loaded swf is uploaded by users, who may or may not know the correct colour.
I know that normally this is specified in the HTML code to embed a swf, but if you run a swf in the standalone player it will display the correct colour, so the information should be there somewhere.
What I want to do is to create a background behind the loaded swf, so it will display like intended.

EDIT:
I would prefer a client side solution if it is at all possible. If not the server side is .net based.

    You could read the SetBackgroundColor tag in the .swf binary.
    Don’t know how to find it, but this link could help :
