A Flex app can communicate with and run javascript in the html wrapper, so if it can be done with javascript, then yes to #1. The second might more complicated, but the same answer applies.
Beyond that, I am pretty sure a swf is constrained by its object tag.

Can a flash app expand, and in turn, make its enclosing div expand. i.e. if the flash app is at the bottom of a page, and it expands, will it increase the entire size of the page? I haven't been able to get this to work in my tests, so I am guessing the answer is no. 2. Can a flash app pop out and expand? i.e something like a lightbox effect, where it will be centered in the screen, in an expanded form. This is similar to the question above, but I thought it was worth asking. Thanks.
