Full Sized Browser Website in Flash 8

[lambbbo]

Hi everybody,

I'm creating a website entirely in Flash 8. I've set the percent to 100 and the scale to "no scale". If fills the screen perfectly except when I test it on a monitor of 1024 X 768 and then cuts off information with no scrollbars. How do I correct this effectively??? Please, if anyone has a quick and dirty solution, I would be very much apprectiated.

You may have to resize your movie:

Use actionscript to place the movieclip objects on the screen so they are always in the same place regardless of the size of the browser.

// top left
yourMC._x = 0;
yourMC._y = 0;

// top right
yourMC._x = Stage.width;
yourMC._y = 0;

//center screen
yourMC._x = Stage.width / 2;
yourMC._y = Stage.height / 2;

I think this answers your question, you wern't too specific.

sorry if I was a little cryptic...here's the issue. Whenever someone looks at the site with 1024 X 768 screen resolution or lower, the webpage is centered in their browser window but too big. It fills their entire browser with no scroll bars. How can I make IE, Moz, Netscape bring up scrollbars once the flash file exceeds the size of the browser window? Check out what I mean.
Go to: www.pittsburghbrownsbackers.com It's really meant to be viewed at anything higher than 1024 X 768. I've found a few posts on this topic but with no real help. Please help if you can...

Oh I forgot, when I was looking into this issue "Div Overflow" seemed to be the proper code to correct this but was never very clear how to use / implement it in the HTML. Am I right on this???

If that is what you mean you can try putting this in the body tag:
STYLE="overflow: auto;"

or include
overflow: auto;

in a stylesheet. I don't know it will work in all browsers though.

Great, thanks a lot. I'll try that later tonight after work.

Unfortunately, it didn't work. I put the code into the HTML and nothing changed...any other suggestions??

Have you tried a css script? This is a style property.

well, I got something to work. When publishing the movie, I selected "Percent" and made it both to 100 values. Then selected Default (show all) for the scale in the window. Now if someone has a smaller resolution, it will fit in the window or scale down if someone makes their browser window smaller. Thanks for all the help and suggestions...I will check out that link.
