Hi
I made a very simple flash movie using swish. Then I positioned it in my webpage within a div. The code is as follows:
<div style=“width:100%;height:75%;margin-right:2;margin-top:2;border:1 solid #669900;”>
<object classid=“clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000”
codebase=“http://active.macromedia.com/flash4/cabs/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0”
id=“flashmovie” width=“100%” height=“100%” border=1>
<param name=“movie” value="…/movies/promo.swf">
<param name=“quality” value=“high”>
<param name=“bgcolor” value="#FFFFFF">
<embed name=“company” src="="…/movies/promo.swf" quality=“high” bgcolor="#FFFFFF"
width=“100%” height=“100%”
type=“application/x-shockwave-flash”
pluginspage=“http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash”>
</embed>
</object>
</div>
Since the width and height of the flash movie is mentioned as 100%, I thought it would scale to fill the div for various browser sizes and screen resolutions. The object tag does resize (when I mention border=1, I can see the object scaling to fill the entire div). But the movie is displayed in only a portion of the object.
How does this work? And is it at all possible to scale the flash movie so that it would fill the entire div and fit exactly within the border of the object tag. I even tried “exactfit”. That did not do the trick. Can anyone please help me out with this?
Thank you!
