Hi Suzy, I can't remember which blog I saw it on (one of the Adobe guys I think), but I saw an example using an IFrame to load the HTML in. Then a custom component in the Flex movie sent messages to Javascript so the IFrame always appeared in the right place and the right size over the Flex page - it worked really nicely and sound like just what you need - sorry I can't be more help, but perhaps this'll jog the memory of someone who as a memory!
