I’ve fully completed my flash site, but I’d like to **lock** the aspect ratio - I want any standard browser window to **automatically readjust** itself in order to adhere to the **pixel ratio of the flash document** itself — currently, the flash swf file appears in its correct ratio, but any “excess” browser window space will appear as ugly white – I would love some advice…

thanks very much in advance! I look forward to becoming a fluent Flash user!
