I’m working on my first real Flash site and once I figure out a problem, 2 more pop up. Here’s the newest one that I can’t seem to figure out.

I have a main movie in which I’ve tried a couple of ways of opening external swfs. First i tried the loader component but everytime I loaded the swf, it would resize to whatever the screen res was. I then tried loadMovieNum and I still get the resizing problem. My question is what is the best way to load an external SWF into a fixed size area?

Any help would be great.
