web browser html layout issues

[M4X]

I am working on a flash website. I'm using actionscript to calculate the stagewidth/2 to centre my content mc when the flash window is resized (this is working in flash player and browser). I also have a listener to set the position of the mc when the application starts (this only works in flash player).

In short, when i open the swf in a web browser it doesn't work. In flash it does? any help would be much appreciated.

it appears to center fine...

Thanks for the reply. For me, when i open this in a web browser the centering doesn't work. Try making the browser window width smaller and then refreshing the page. is it still centered? what browser are you using? (i've been using firefox and safari).

in FF, Safari, Chrome and IE the centering works on resize, but not onload (which is why it doesn't stay centered on refresh). Any easy fix is to dispatch a resize event onload

stage.dispatchEvent(new Event("resize"));

you might be cacheing either clear the browser cache or see if it works in a diffrent browser...sometimes after making changes i have to close all browser windows before the change takes affect..the .swf is cached.

I think i sorted it. My set stage position function wasn't firing. Thanks for input.
