I'm wondering if anyone knows how to make it so when someone goes to your site
that it will automaticly resize itsself to the resolution of the viewers
computer. (Not talking bout 100% by 100%) any answers are deeply appreciated.  
Not sure if it's possible though....

If you don't mean 100% by 100%, then what exactly do you mean?

I suppose you could embed your flash in html, which I assume you are, and use
the availWidth code, or something of the like, but 100% does relate to the
viewer's computer. If you used availWidth for the main page in conjunction with
a % (whether it be 100% or 5% or anything inbetween) it should do the trick for
you.

Not sure exactly what you mean, i'm assuming you would like the browser
window to open full screen, then you would do this in HTML before the flash
movie is embeded at 100%

If you use style sheets you can set the browser to open at 100% of screen
size.

You can achieve this in IE here...

heres a sample of code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript">
window.onload = maxWindow;

function maxWindow()
{
window.moveTo(0,0);

if (document.all)
{
 top.window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight);
}

else if (document.layers||document.getElementById)
{
 if
(top.window.outerHeight<screen.availHeight||top.window.outerWidth<screen.ava
ilWidth)
 {
   top.window.outerHeight = screen.availHeight;
   top.window.outerWidth = screen.availWidth;
 }
}
}

</script>

</head>

   </object>
</body>
</html>

// just replace "your flash movie.swf" with the reletive path and name of
the movie file.

awsome feedback, but what i mean is NOT 100% by 100% because that is 100% of
the window size, like when you make window smaller it shrinks. i wont it so if
they had 800x600, the flash size would be 800x600 and not change. is that all
what all that code does?

Hi,

My solution is implemented in www.whitsandbaydivers.com , try resizing the
window and then refreshing the page!
