[F8] Expanding SWF

[belotte]

How can I create an SWF that expands over the rest of the html content when I roll over it (popular in advertising banners right now. Example: the crafts man banner at http://my.yahoo.com/).

What is this employing besides just the swf, dose this use java of something else to allow it to expand over other content?

If so where can I find out more on how to do something like this?

I have looked on this site and many others and haven't found vary many good answers.

Thanks.

you can do this using div layers etc.

you can download some template examples from http://www.dartmotif.com/formats/formats_expanding.asp

Have you used this? It sounds like I need something installed on the hosting server (app or script, etc).

Is that correct? Or dos it "just work"?

Thanks
