Hello,

I’m having a problem getting fullscreen to work. When I try to go fullscreen, I get the error #2152. Now, I read this is because the HTML has to say it is ok to go fullscreen, but as you can see in the posted code, all 3 places are set to ‘true’.

Here is the HTML made by CS3:

```auto
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=TIS-620" />
<title>Untitled-1</title>
<script language="javascript">AC_FL_RunContent = 0;</script>
<script src="AC_RunActiveContent.js" language="javascript"></script>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#ffffff">
<!--url's used in the movie-->
<!--text used in the movie-->
<!-- saved from url=(0013)about:internet -->
<script language="javascript">
 if (AC_FL_RunContent == 0) {
  alert("This page requires AC_RunActiveContent.js.");
 } else {
  AC_FL_RunContent(
   'codebase', 'http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0',
   'width', '100%',
   'height', '100%',

   'allowScriptAccess','sameDomain',
   'movie', 'Untitled-1',
   'salign', ''
   ); //end AC code
 }

CODE]
 
Here is the AS3 code:
 

```

try {  
stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.FULL\_SCREEN;  
txt.text = “OK”;  
} catch (e:SecurityError) {  
//if you don’t complete STEP TWO below, you will get this SecurityError  
txt.text = e.message;  
trace(“an error has occured. please modify the html file to allow fullscreen mode”);  
}

```auto

 
any ideas?
 
take care,
lee
```
