Re: FLASH: Scaling to fit browser windows...

[Gregg Caines]

If you're going to scale it, you'll have to scale it all.  The only

other option is to make your background color the same as

the Flash movie.  That way any extra space around the Flash

movie will look like blank bankground.


I suppose if you really wanted to do it your way, you could

FSCommand the screen.width and .height from javascript and

do some actionscripting to rescale everything correctly, but

that seems like serious overkill to me.
