Hi Nick, I actually did this, but still the Flash does not render properly in IE8. I thought at first that it may be because I was only running the application in the Visual Studio web development server but then when I moved the application to be hosted on IIS, the embedded flash still does not take the height in percentage. The only recourse I have as of now is to set the height to a certain pixel. But setting the height in actual pixel has also some drawbacks because if I set the height too large, then the vertical scrollbar of the browser appears, while setting it too low, some of the flash application is cropped.
I haven't tested the same in other browsers since security policy in the office limits us the use of IE8 only. I don't know if a javascript hack could solve this. Perhaps, when the page is loading, a javascript will get the content height of the browser and set the value accordingly for the embedded flash object. Any thoughts? I will post the minimal ASP.net codes I have tomorrow. Thanks.

If I were you, I'd create a blank html page on your web server and between the BODY tags put similar code that can be found on Step 4 of this link: http://www.w3school s.com/flash/ flash_inhtml. asp See what happens then...
