If you know answer your a genius!

Not sure if I should ask it here or the programming/scripting forum but oh well.

You know how when you go File > Publish Preview > Defaul (Html) it shows your animation in a new web browser and it displays it in the upper left hand corner of the page. Is there a way to make it appear in the center of the web page?

Not that it really matters, it just bugs me that it's in the top left >_< and I'm curious if such a thing is even possible.

Thanks guys!

It is possible! Open the published HTML file in notepad/wordpad, find the long line of code which embeds the swf, which looks like this:

<param name="movie" value="ff.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /><embed src="ff.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="550" height="400" name="ff" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"/>

and above it copy these 3 lines:

<table width="100%" border=0 height=100%>
<tr>
<td valign="middle" align="center">

AND AT THE END OF THE HTML CODE where it says
</object>
</body>
</html>

copy this:

</td>
</tr>
</table>

Not really, you just need to know basic HTML...

If I'm super lazy and want to center my swf file I use.

HAHA! It's obvious that you don't know html well because you should NEVER put html after the /body /html tags. :P And using tables is ugly bad for anyone who knows their css.

Sorry for laughing...

Anyway, to the original poster, you should put this before your flash embed html:

<div style='width: 100%; text-align: center;'>

and this after your flash embed html:

</div>

(I hope NG doesn't mess up the html...)

Inline styles? Neanderthal.

Lol. Yeah, I didn't want to mess his head up by putting css in the header. I normally don't use inline styling. :P

It beats tables anytime, though.

No, that doesn't work.. You have to do it like Onion Fusion:

<td valign="middle" align="center">

It depends on your browser. I used <center> for a long time until I started using Safari instead of IE7. Now I use CSS styles. I don't recommend <center>, but it does work for IE users (at least in IE7 it worked for me).
