Hello, I’m new here, so hello everyone :alien2:

I would like to know if any of you know how to make this thing with the background like [www.hi-res.net](http://www.hi-res.net) do. When you scale your window, the background automatically adapts itself to fit the new window size with no white gaps between the image and the browser’s window.

Does anyone have a clue on how this was done?

And is it possible to place a flash movie in a html page without the “white frame”, i mean, without that space between the animation and the browser limits?

Thanks in advance. Great site. Great help!

Don’t know about the resizing image.  
But to remove the margin around an html page you need to alter the \<body\> tags or your css…

In the html change the bit that says:  
\<body\>  
\</body\>

to:  
\<body leftmargin=“0” rightmargin=“0” topmargin=“0” bottommargin=“0”\>  
\</body\>

You may have known that so sorry if I’m stating the obvious!!!

if its something like this that you are after [http://www.gifsrus.com/testfile/Stageresize004.html](http://www.gifsrus.com/testfile/Stageresize004.html)  
then you need to look at the Stage object (Stage.onResize) and then just some simple easing equation.

This might get you started, make your background image a movieclip, instance name mc.  
on the timeline type  
Stage.scaleMode = “noScale”;  
Stage.align = “tl”;  
this.onLoad = function () {  
mc.\_width = Stage.width;  
mc.\_height = Stage.height;  
};  
this.onResize = function() {  
change();  
};  
Stage.addListener(this);  
\_global.change = function() {  
mc.\_width = Stage.width;  
mc.\_height = Stage.height;  
};

when you publish - 100%-noScale-set margins as you wish

Hi guys,

looks like the background may be an invidual movie (loaded into a container clip on ‘main’ behind the navigation) and within the background movie itself the programmer has used the FS “allowscale” command?

Oh and for maximising flash to ‘extend to the limits of the browser’ check out:

I got this from a nother forun but i dont get it mayby you cann figur it out?

Hi Mikael,  
you do load the first with the size in the html object tag, usualy 100% \* 100%.

Then you load new movies into an empty movie clip with this:

Code:  
\_root.createEmptyMovieClip(instanceName, depth);  
instanceName.loadMovie(“moviename.swf”);  
instanceName.\_x=xPosition;  
instanceName.\_y=yPosition;  
instanceName.\_xscale=scalingInPercent;  
instanceName.\_yscale=scalingInPercent;

Just replace my words with real values, and you will have what you’ve been asking for.
