I am seeking a small tidbit of advice from whomever designed your HTML - I have had a terrible time getting Firefox browser to open a Flash document with the size "100%" by "100%" - your site does it though.

I have a site completely unrelated to yours. The Firefox forums have been of little help except someone pointed me to your site.

Any thoughts?

I ahve played with "exact fit" but it does not remedy.

Worng Forum this should be in Flash Dev, but how you do it is.

File-Publish Settings-Dimensions-Percent-100*100

Try that it should work it might be different tho with Firefox browsers.

I believe the question was "how does Firefox show Flash documents with 100 x 100 % dimensions", not "how do I make a flash file with 100 x 100 % dimensions" :-p

Or did I get that wrong? What exactly is your problem? Does Firefox just not open them? Or am I completely misunderstanding this?

Try opening a direct link... like directly making your browser go to http://thewebsite.com/thefilename.swf. Also that's not a very good idea because it is very slow.

If the screen size is bigger,it is slower.100% is nautral size.

I was not completely clear. Firefox will usually open a 100% x 100% flash as 100% wide but only 100 pixels high despite the proper html for Opera, IE, & Safari to work just fine with it. I am taking an existing .swf file and embedding it with Dreamweaver.

I looked at your source and nothing really jumps out at me except yours works and mine does not.

I think this should go to Irrelevance.

*sigh*

No, it should not go to Irrelevance. It has to do with XGen's Homepage, therefore it's site related.

Also, I've had the same problem, and I really don't have a clue as of how to fix it.

I always just end up digging through the source, finding the .swf file, and opening it directly.

Yeah, I stopped visiting the homepage the day I got Firefox.
