well at the end of a swf i have the above code , and it loads another swf into that one but the thing is, the swf its loading has different dimensions,so it doesnt display the entire swf. is their anyway of making the swf im loading into change its dimensions to accomodate the bigger .swf?

i tried searching but could find anything

well that does really help ,becuase your main file is big enough to accomodate the other .swf’s.  
my main .swf is smaller that the one im trying to load into it.

well the animation is gonna be displayed in a normal browser ( width=100% height=100%), so if this isnt possible then instead of having root load ill just have it load a new page instead.
