here's the problem, in IE my flash page looks fine, in mozilla the flash is scaled to maybe 40% of the window size and much too small to use.
site (http://www.rehabnation.com)
though most use IE, i use mozilla and for me to check the site as i'm building i have to pull up IE, plus in the future when the site is finished i will want cross browser capability.
the flash file is dumped into an html page and set to 100% height & width. i don't see anything that should change the size so much in mozilla.
thanks in advance

That is interesting...your code looks correct.
The only thing I see missing is the 'menu' in the <embed> tags which Mozilla uses.
you have a lot of redundant code in there so I would clean some of that up.
also you have this in the body tag )>
well I tried vewing the flash on my local machine and I kept getting errors. so I have to ask, is the flash really as big as IE shows it or is it as big as mozilla shows it? if so then maybe mozilla won't stretch it. I am using flash 7 and it shows it small too no matter what I did ot the code.

the flash file was built at 800x600, you can view the actual swf here (http://aarongreene.com/site.swf) -works in mozilla too
i placed it into html and scaled to 100 so it would fill the windows at whatever window size. set for flash player 6 too so 7 should display fine.
i use dreamweaver so i'm sure there is extra code in there, i just don't look that closely.
the other thing i was thinking, rehabnation.com is a domain that masks the domain setup w/powweb (aarongreene.com).

didn't find any clear solution other than setting the swf to 800x600, now it shows up full size, but does not resize with the browser which is probably okay.
