Hey Gurus,

I am builidng a player in Flash MX 2004 which will show externally loaded SWFs 
to the user. One SWF at a time. The user is going to have back-next type 
navigation controls. Thats all. Simple.

But I am facing a wierd problem in loading external SWFs. I want to be able to 
resize the external SWFs into a fixed area while maintaining the aspect ratio 
of the loaded SWF. This action is happening unreliably for me. In some SWFs, my 
solution is working fine and in some it is not. Result is that I am sometimes 
getting SWFs which are smaller in size than what I want (as in they dont fill 
up whole viewable area even when they can). Note that this is happening only in 
some SWFs and not all of them.

I am tempted to think that this might be because some SWFs are somehow 
different than the SWFs which work fine. But I am clueless what this difference 
could be. All external SWFs have only one frame. And there framerate is also 
same. I am resizing all SWFs in loadClip.onLoadInit. The resizing code tries to 
fit the loaded SWF into a fixed area while maintaining its aspect ratio.

I have tried using MovieClip.loadClip and also the Loader component that comes 
with Flash MX 2004.

Is there anything which I am missing out here, or could there be any attribute 
in the external SWF which might make it behave differently than others when 
resized.

Kindly help me. This issue is really giving me jerks now. Thanks!

Regards,
Kapil Mohan
