what are you talking about? That is just an html page.

[steiner_99]

No its not an HTML Page,

Right click on the outside, you'll see its flash, all the HTML is loaded dynamically into the center, with Wordpress.

It looks just like an HTML page, but its not.

Here, Check out the .swf file.

LoL....sorry

var so = new SWFObject("blog.swf", "BLOG", "100%", "1125", "8", "#000000");

as you can see the width is 100% and the height is 1125. The height is why it scrolls vertically. And the width adjusting is a very simply Stage.onResize function. Kirpua has some nice tutorials and I'm sure they cover 100% flash sites or full flash sites.

Cheers.

Look into noScale and stage listeners. There's plenty of tutorials EVERYWHERE on this.

perhpas the real question should be why did they bother. The integration with wordpress is excelent, but why make page based site in flash?

Because the site uses video and other multimedia functions that can be seamlessly done with flash instead of popping up a new window and requiring three different versions (Windows Media, Real Player, Quicktime).

I would have done the same thing, they needed to fake it and then turn it around, is perfect for me,cant see a better option, agree.

sounds like you haven't experienced the site to its full. Did you watch the video and then wait a few seconds? There is more to this site that meets the eye and you certainly couldn't do it without flash
