Helo guys, does anyone know how to make a banner expand on to html site?

Expl: There is a flash banner 500 x 60 on top of a html site, when you rollover your mouse on the banner it expands over the site to (for example) 500 x 500...

I'm looking for a solution, turtorial... I know that it can be done using javascript, but I cant find a script for it. Please help me.

blind down effect will probably work with a little adjustment

Click the button at the bottom, and a new site should open, look at the banner, this is a expanding banner... I wonder how to make a banner expand like this.

Hi, there is a kit available on FlashDen : http://www.flashden.net/item/expand-...D_Flash_Design
It includes both sources fla and html / div codes. But sometimes the avertising server agencies can give you their own kit (but it generally don't include the codes to intergate this on your own sites for instance
Most solutions are based on expanding and closing divs but some are not completly compatible with every browser such as Firefox Mac as far as i know

If you didn't already find an answer, I could walk you through the one I've created that works in every browser I've test and is very easy to use as a template.
