please refer to this link woodworks.net.nz/

at the very top the image at the left, right, the background and the navigation are all 1 swf file

this flash file is in a div called flashcontent this div has no css styles and instead they have used swfobject and specified the width as 100% and a height of 290px and due to the 100% the flash file scales based on how narrow and large the browser window is just like how an image would adjust if the image were to be in a div whose width is set to 100%

my question in case of an image there would be a specific width and because the div which holds the image is set to a width of 100% the image would scale


however in case of the flash file there is no width value in terms of pixels it is 100% width

so without having a div set to 100% width which is holding the flash file how is this flash file able to scale

what would the width of the flash file be or does it not matter because the flash file width is set to 100% what is the technique used

please advice

thanks

There is a div (#header) set to 100% in the website you provided so i don't really understand what you try to say with your post.

Flash files and images, not a good comparison. They are different file types and treated differently by browsers.


When you create and publish a flash file you have options on size, actual size or scale. If a file scales to the window then it was created to do allow this. If you want to display the flash file a different size you need to specify that in the embed code.
