I was wondering if there was a way to keep an image the same size even if the person maximizes the window
so If an image is 100x100 in flash and they maximize the window, it doesnt stretch.

You can't maximize the flash window if it's embeded in a website
If you resize an swf withou AS, you will anyway distort everything that's included in there.

btw.. always convert imported images to a graphic symbor or a movieclip symbol

okay one more thing, is there an action script to add into the first scene or w/e to check and make sure they have the right flashplayer, and if not it takes them to a URL?

[funkysoul]

if you're using flash 8, you can choose to embend a version check when you publish the swf and html

Just go to File -> Publish Settings, set it up how you like it and then press F12 or File -> Publish

okay and one more thing...when I use getURL("http://www.google.com", "_blank");
for example...it always brings up a warning saying denied access to let action script run or whatever, then it takes me to the macromedia website and I have no idea what to do to fix it, I changed settings on their thing but it doesnt save, I tried FF and IE but IE cant even load the flash thing all the way and when it FINALLY DOES it doesnt save the settings either...so yea, why wont it let me redirect to websites?

depending on which method you calling the URL, the security sandbox of flash comes into play, wanna post your fla, so I can have a look at it?

[l3lueMage]

I figured it out I think, there was some setting in the publish I think. but I was using the url method I posted above, I cant send the fla cause this is for some company o.o; but really its just a button with the action script as this

on (release) {
getURL("http://www.google.com", "_blank");
}

well that code must work without any problem.
