How do I get rid of the border when I publish my movie? I mean I want the text to start at the very very top left corner not part way down and to the right.

```php

<body topmargin="0" leftmargin="0">

```

that goes in your HTML page.

Is that the only way. Isn’t there one in the publish settings in flash or something?

you’re talking about in the browser window right? No there isnt anyother way. You have to define the size of the borders in the HTML

If your upset that that is the only way because everytime you publish you have to change the body tag, then oh well 😛

But what I usually do is create a duplicate of the exported .html file but give it a different name. I then give that file the edited body tag and whatever else. So when I export, the original files get overwritten, but the duplicated .html file doesn’t.

OR you could go to File/Publish Setting and uncheck the .html checkbox so it won’t export another .html file.

I don’t usually do that because sometimes I forget to check it again and I find out in the end after I close out flash that I didn’t get my .html file… it makes me angry…lol.
