    Post Flash Help

    I'm trying to figure out how to make flash size to the size of the web browser (like using tables that size in %ages.)

    I can't seem to figure it out. Damnit. (I'm sure it'll be something really simple thus making me look very dumb)

    Aye it's easy You're just looking in the wrong place. It's not an option on the Flash maker program, it's an attribute you set to the "embed" element when you actually put it into the webapage. Simply define it's height and width as 100%. By default there's a small border around it, and if you want that gone too than just set:
    scale="noborder"
    in the embed element.

    Example:
    <embed src="images/flash.swf" play="true" loop="true" quality="high" name="flash.swf" width="100%" height="100%" scale="noborder" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" >

    Now also remember to set the proper margin settings to the body tag for a full screen viewing:

    <body topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">

    Top&Leftmargin's are for IE to read, and marginWidth&Height's are for Netscape to read.

    Ha! Simspons reference!

    Yeah, I was wondering how to do that too: Enlarge the size of a flash movie to fill the browser. Thanks Griz!
