Issue Summary
I have been trying to figure this out for a while no with no luck. After scouring the drupal site for similar issues, I now resort to you guys. I am using the garland theme. On my homepage (www.freighthousemedia.com) there is a flash file (actually a flash site) that I have incorporated into my site. I have tried all possible setting scenarios in order to achieve elasticity with my flash file so that when a user has a low screen resolution (or just a small browser window open), the flash does not overlap the right sidebar. I would like the flash to scale down in size (or even just maintain the original size and assure that the right sidebar stays to the right of the flash at all times with a scrollbar at the bottom of the browser window. Does that make sense? Please help! Thanks in advance for not clowning my apparent stupidity.

I'm afraid this one is beyond me! You'd somehow need to make the flash movie size dynamic, based on the size of the page, or the device it's being rendered on. I guess you'd need some javascript that resizes the flash movie, but I don't know how you'd achieve that, nor if you can even make that aspect of the page dynamic!
As it stands, flash node stores the movie size and uses that to generate the HTML mark up, either from its own internal routine, or via SWF Tools. You'd need to intercept and over-ride that sizing function with the javascript, or use the script to manipulate the movie size after the initial rendering.
I think this has to be one for the wider community, but I'd be interested if you work out how to do it!
I'm afraid I'm going to have to set this status to "won't fix", although more tehnically it is "don't know how to fix"! Sorry!
