border problems with website
|

| Knewt 2004-02-23, 10:29 pm |
| Hi all,
I am having a problem with my Flash website. I have tried all of the options
within Flash
when publishing, I still get a border. My Flash page size is 550 x 420 and I
would like
the HTML window to fit tight to my file when viewed on the web. If you open
the SWF, it is
tight to the edge. How can I get the window to open tight and to the same size
every time it
is opened?
I published both the SWF and the HTML files and loaded them to my web account,
only to
see a space around my file every time. Editing the file source dimensions, did
not work.
Can some one please take a look at my site and tell how I can fix this
problem? Thank you
in advance.

| If I am gathering what you are saying you will have to open a popup window
that are the dimensions of your flash movie. Keeping in mind that many folks
are using pop up blockers these days and that can be problematic. If you are
unsung Dreamweaver you can have an index page with a link. On that link put
a behavior to open a new browser window. It will let you set the dimensions
and what you want in the way or toolbars. If your first page is the page
you want to be flash then you'll have to have an onload command on a blank
index page that loads the new browser window

| Al,
I am using Flash to create my website. I have a Flash page called (index.htm)
that comes up first, which is the readme page. From my readme page, the user
can click the button that takes them to my website. both the readme page and
the website page open but do not fill the window.
I would like to know how I can get my Flash information to fill the window
without having to use Dreamweaver, etc.
Many thanks,
Newton

| I have what you need I think...this has to go on a html page that calls your
flash page. It will resize your flash movie to fit any resolution browser.
I've used it myself and it can be a bit tricky so if you have problems email
me at alwinch@msn.com . It will popup your html page that has your flash in
it and resize it to fit any browser.

| I'm currently in the process of building a site in flash, and to remedy the
problem of having space around your flash movie after publishing here is what
you need to do. Open the .html file in Notepad (or similar program for
non-windows users) that Flash created when you published your movie, and you'll
see a line of code that looks like:
<BODY bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
All you need to do is insert this line of code into that tag:
topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"
So that the tag should now look similar to the following:
<BODY bgcolor="#FFFFFF" topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" marginwidth="0"
marginheight="0">
Just save and away you go.
