Hi all

I recently started working on a updated site for my games club as theres was
sadly lacking in all things Smile

....

installed RN found a good theme began work Smile

atm the theme all works right but i am having problems with the main header
of the site.
the header.php file points to a .swf file even thought the header.gif is there with the rest of them
i made the banner a .swf so i could save myself some time as i am still realy new
to php coding when i got it all working the banner was the wrong size i was wondering
iff some one would be able to help me out with this problem....

site addy is http://www.eodo808.co.uk/gob2

Add this parameter within the object tag of the SWF:

Code:

<param name="scale" value="exactfit">

You will also need to change the width of the very top table from 931 to 1000 so that the table above the SWF is the right width.

The problem that you are having is that the SWF file was published at 300 x 1000 and the aspect ratio is locked unless you do what I posted above. If you where to change to height to 300 you would see that it fits perfectly. Obviously you want it smaller though.
