RE: FLASH: NN Problem

[Brack, Jeremy]

I ran into this problem as well.  It seems Netscape places an invisible

border around any Flash movie thats in a table cell.  My only solution was

to make seperate Netscape and IE versions with a Javascript browser detector

and auto-redirect.  That way the user doesnt need to know what browser they

are using, they visit the site and the Javascript finds them the correct

version for thier browser.  You still have to mess around a lot with the

table cells to make the Netscape version look closer to the IE version, but

by keeping 2 seperate versions, you will assure that the IE version doesnt

get destroyed when you get the Netscape version to look decent.


Unfortunately, the Netscape problem also exists on MAC, so the only way to

truely fix it is for Netscape to fix thier browser.  I believe the beta

version of Netscape 6 also has the problem.
