| HI, i hope someone can help clear up my confusion.
Im creating a website in flash at the moment. I want the first page of the
site to be am HTML page where people without flash can view the page (download
flash if they havent got it) then enter the site. Is this initial HTML page
which will link to the main flash site created within flash somehow or is it
created in a programme such as dreamweaver then links to the flash movie?
Thanks so much for any help (im new to flash so a bit unsure of the complete
process off making the site accessable for people withouth flash and publishing
to the web)

Flash will create the HTML for you, all the tags and link to the movie that
is what the 'Publish Settings' and 'Publish' is all about.
If you want the swf to fill the entire page you will have to bear in mind
that people do have different monitor sizes and therefore different browser
window sizes. In the HTML (just right click the page and select view source)
find the two tags with
WIDTH=" " and HEIGHT=" " and change them all to "100%". Align everything to
center too.
An annoying bit of bad HTML that Flash writes for you is the bgcolor
VALUE=#ffffff because any HTML value that holds a non alpha/numeric
character such as # should be in "quotes".

(good at html but thinks Flash sucks)

| if ur using front page it easy...you don't link to individual flash files but
to html pages with flash embedded in them. you create your flash website...and
make sure you publish it by selecting HTML and Flash in the publish
settings..you embed the swf file into a html page by opening the published html
in notepad copying the html and pasting it into front page. this html allows
the flash site to be seen. within that html there is a line of code for an
alternate page which will lead people without flash to a different page..you
can change this if u wish to one that you have created allowing people to
download flash player.
