I am having a problem making the browser tightly fit my flash movie. On a pc I can size the window properly but on a mac the width and hieght are slightly off,, what can I do to make this work on both computers

both the mac(OSX) and pc(W2K) are using Internet explorer pc (ie 6.0) mac (ie 5.2.1)

You can do many things. 1 of them are to go to your publish settings, and
set the publish mode to percents instead of pixels. Another thing to do,
which I highly recommend is to have an actionscript code which detects the
OS, if it detects windows, play the win_movie.swf or if it detects a mac,
play mac_movie.swf. It's quite simple. Ask someone on a forums like
www.kirupaforums.com or www.flashkit.com.
