Centering flash movie in browser window - how?

lizziebyrne · Apr 28, 2004

I've managed to center a HTML page so it always stays in the middle of the browser window. This was done by creating a 100x100% frame and putting another 100% wide frame inside and setting all frames to be aligned to the middle. The content then would go in the inner most frame.

I've tried doing this with the content being a flash movie, but it doesn't seem to work. Instead the movie always remains fixed at the top of the page.

Can any one let me know how to center a flash movie in a browser?

Thanks, L
