    Running a Movie Fullscreen on the end users machine.

    Hi,
    I have a small problem. that is, how do I make my swf file play fullscreen when the end user is accessing thru a browser, the movie already has FS command for a full screen.
    but it is still playing inside a browser.
    please help this out to me asap.

    Hi - its a javascript thing. For IE, it really couldnt be easier - stick this code in the <head></head> of an html page and it will launch a fullscreen window that calls the html page that has your swf file embedded...
    <javascript>
    window.open("mypage.html","newwindow","fullscreen= 1");
    </javascript>

    You'll need an exit button of course, and thats a whole different matter - go and see moock.org - he's the man on this subject.

    For Netscape, there are differing opinions, but one thing is for sure - its a lot more tricky. And I dont have a clue. Using the javascript above will remove everything on netscape, except the title bar. So its ok, but not perfect.
    Good luck!
