Small edits to an existing flash template

hello all,

 

this first time on adobe forums.

 

i brought here because purchased flash template site.  template nice, aside replacing data default data through xml file, need insert text around top , bottom of main page.  in fact, there 1 page consists of gallery. entire template flash gallery.

 

before go on, want start saying have absolutely no knowledge of flash.  have knowledge of html , css only, don't know if in i'm trying accomplish here. 

 

anyway, spent 4 hours trying add text using flash professional top of main.fla's page.  file way happens have black background.  initially, hit text tool, typed word , dragged spot near top of page.  tested video , found not run.  googled issue , found out dealing "textfield" apparently finicky thing , requires me insert code in ".as" files came template.

 

after wasting of time on that, went flash , realized there option "classic text".  typed word again , dragged random position on top , found template started without hiccup , word did display.  of course easy.  realized upon launching html file in given browser, text in wrong place. not mention move if maximized/restored window. park right behind logo!  figured far , thought i'd turn guys words of wisdom. 

 

so how absolutely position text place on screen? if that, apply animation text learned online.

 

i appreciate help!

almost everything can done, but depend on how the template was made to know that modifications must made
