FLASH: why doesn't my movie fill the screen in NN3 on the PC?

[Carla Otto]

Hi all,


Okay, I know that to have my movie completely fill the screen at any

resolution, I just put these tags like this... <OBJECT> and <EMBED> with

height and width set to 100%:

<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"

 codebase="http://active.macromedia.com/flash2/cabs/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0"

 ID=therock WIDTH=100% HEIGHT=100%>

 <PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="therock.swf"> <PARAM NAME=loop VALUE=false>

<PARAM NAME=menu VALUE=false> <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high> <PARAM

NAME=wmode VALUE=transparent> <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#000000> <EMBED

src="therock.swf" loop=false menu=false quality=high wmode=transparent

bgcolor=#000000  WIDTH=100% HEIGHT=100%

TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"

PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Vers

ion=ShockwaveFlash"></EMBED>

</OBJECT>

My Mac looks great...BUT, when I look at it on my PC, the thing is all

confused. It *doesn't* fill the window in NN 3 on the PC. It looks pretty

lame, because my movie plays in the center of the screen surrounded by a

black border about 3 inches thick.


AAARGH! Is this more evidence of the silly browser wars? I can't believe

that I have to go back and make my movie objects bigger.


Help, anyone?


Thanks,

Carla
