How Do I Fill the HTML page?

mreif · #1 (**permalink**) 08-12-2004, 05:36 PM

After I publish my flash site I always get the border around my site.

If you look at this site now the page fills the screen from edge to edge but on my site I get a small border around the site. Is this because it's a Flash only site? Can I get my site to be flush left and top to the browser?

My site is www.infinite-soul.com to see what I mean.

Thank You!

Do you mean the white space on the left right top and bottome surrounding the actual flash itself. You have to set your alignment and fix the margins to 0. If you use dreamweaver, which this looks very characteristic of, you can right click on work area, click page properties and then set it there. Hope this helped.

try this:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>infinite-soul</TITLE>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<style type="text/css">

</style>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<OBJECT id="infinite-soul" data="infinite-soul.swf" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="100%" height="100%">
<param name="movie" value="infinite-soul.swf" />
<param name="loop" value="false" />
<param name="menu" value="true" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="wmode" value="opaque" />
<param name="scale" value="exactfit" />
<param name="devicefont" value="false" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF" />
</object>
</BODY>
</HTML>

if you dont like the fact that page gets stretched then change "exactfit" to "showall".

you can also change quality high to quality best.

Your site is very very slow on my system which is only 400 MHZ but is plenty fast enough for most flash files.

First and foremost you should eliminate the mouse cursor change. Anything that alters the basic functionality of the end users browsing is annoying.

Anyway the drag cursor replacement is very choppy and difficult to use.
