Is it possible without framing a page to align an object for example a flash movie within an HTML page excactly in the center of the screen?????

In other words say we have a small flash movie or an image.
Small in size i mean (eg. 640x420)

All i want to do is to center the movie in the center of the screen (left-right center as well as top-bottom center) without using frames if it is possible.
This will help me to have the same exactly appereance of the screen in different screen platforms.
I know this is doable using frames but then is more complicated if the site is not a flash movie. Also i know the (aligh = "center") but as im concerned this works only for left or right alignment.

Is there anyone who can help.

I usually use the following, with no problems in NS or IE:

<BODY bgcolor=&quot;#000000&quot; MARGINHEIGHT=&quot;0&quot; MARGINWIDTH=&quot;0&quot; TOPMARGIN=&quot;0&quot; LEFTMARGIN=&quot;0&quot; scroll=&quot;no&quot;>
<CENTER>
...

And use % scaling in the width & height of the embedded player as:

<OBJECT classid=&quot;clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000&quot; codebase=&quot; ID=index WIDTH=100% HEIGHT=100%>
...

Same in the <embed> tag.
