Hi

I have seen this on some site, so there must be a way of doing this. How do you dynamically change a flash movies dimension during runtime?

For example, the forum nugget is working on ( [http://www.trp-florida.com/flash\_forum/forum.html](http://www.trp-florida.com/flash_forum/forum.html) )…I noticed that the height of the flash forum dynamically grows as the thread gets longer…because I can see my browser scroll bars appear. How can this be achieved??

This seems mind buggling to me, because you have to set a flash movies stage dimensions before publishing and the html has the flash dimesions too, so I don’t get how this is being done? Please any ideas or links to tutorials that talk about this issue will be greatly appreciated.

By the way, I did send nugget a PM if anyone was wondering…but still no reply as of yet…so I came to the forum.
