I wrote a blog about vertical centering almost two years ago. it includes two examples of vertically centered SWFs: http://pipwerks.com/journal/2007/05/08/vertical-centering-without-using-tables/
(the swfs were embedded using SWFObject 1.5, which shows you how old the post is!) note that this is probably an outdated/bloated way of doing vertical centering... i'm sure there are better ways to do it by now, i just haven't bothered investigating. :) - philip On Thu, Feb 5, 2009 at 7:01 PM, Aran Rhee <[email protected]> wrote: > > Alan. > > > It's not a matter of not wanting to, but trying to keep this list to what > its intention is - answering issues related to SWFObject.
