i have a 1600x1px background.gif  
at the top of the page i have a 1600x140px .swf file acting as a menu.  
the flash part centers itself correctly if the browser window is less than 1600px wide (like the menu on [www.aperfectcircle.com](http://www.aperfectcircle.com)), but i can’t get the table background to do the same thing. the first pixel is always locked to the left side of the browser.  
is what i’m trying to do even possible?  
thanks in advance for any help. 🍺
