Using Flash in a table cell that grows

I want to use a flash movie in a table cell that grows. I would like the flash
movie to scale to fit.

Macromedia recommends that you use fixed pixel values in this case, however,
that would not give the desired effect (movie scales with screen size)

Has anyone solved this problem? I am guessing that in the absence of a
suitable simple solution that I will have to use Javascript to measure and
resize the flash movie according to the table cell size (assuming that that
does not introduce a whole set of new problems)

At the moment (using IE6). I can set the width to 100%, but as soon as I set
the height to 100% the movie fails to display.

Thanks in advance,

Paul

Hi,
I keep reading over in the DW forum that the height attribute on tables in not
valid html, which would be why it does not display correctly in the browser. Go
to the DW forum and search 100% height. There might be a way to do it using
css...
