Stretching Flash
Hi,
I'm VERY new to ATutor, and not really a coder. A tough combination. I have been having some success with it, but have run into a problem.
I would like to display a flash movie within a course. If i make the movie a fixed size, it goes in no problem. But, i would like the movie to fill the users screen (within the content area, not the entire screen).
I have a html page, which i made, which does this, but if i put that code into ATutor, nothing shows up. I'm sure there is a simple reason for this, but i have no idea what it is (maybe the external javascript file ?).
If i am doing this wrong, does anyone have any suggestions on a better way of accomplishing this? IS this even possible?
Here is the HTML code i'm using (and yes, i've uploaded the Flash and .js files).
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>sample3</title>
<script language="javascript">AC_FL_RunContent = 0;</script>
<script src="AC_RunActiveContent.js" language="javascript"></script>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#ffffff">
<!--url's used in the movie-->
<!--text used in the movie-->
<!-- saved from url=(0013)about:internet -->
<script language="javascript">
if (AC_FL_RunContent == 0) {
alert("This page requires AC_RunActiveContent.js.");
} else {
AC_FL_RunContent(
'codebase', 'http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0',
'width', '100%',

); //end AC code
}
