Richard,

IE uses the height & width to size the inside dimensions, and of course NS uses
them to size the entire browser window (chrome included).

What you'll probably want to do is size your window large enough to account for
whatever browser chrome may be present and then fix your movie size at 750x500
with no scaling.

HTH,
Randy
