I have a question here. I completed a 800x600 flash movie which I intend to make it as a whole web page. How can I make it completly fit on a browser window without gaps and it still maintain the appropriate size when I resize the browser? (I mean no matter what size of the browser, I still can see the whole movie without gaps.) Do this have to be done in Flash or Dreamweaver?

Set your publish options to Dimensions="Percent" and Scale="Exact Fit" within Flash. The movie will rescale to fit the window no matter what you do to it but this means that the movie itself can lose its aspect ratio: depending on how you set your window you could end up with a tall, thin movie or a short, fat one.
 
You also need to set the margins in your html page to "0". It also helps to set "marginheight and width" to "0". Doing this get's rid of that little edge around your flash movie. funkymonk B-)
