Hi Patrick The most likely cause of your problem is a mismatch between your wrapper HTML and CSS. You specify *#wrapper* in the CSS, but your markup uses * id="wrapper1"*
I have no idea what's in dew1.css, so I can't know for sure if there's anything in there causing a conflict. (BTW, it's better to post links to actual files than pasting code in email... makes it easier for us to read/troubleshoot for precisely this reason). You also have a typo for letter-spacing in your CSS, but that shouldn't affect your SWF. RE: @font-face and fullscreen mode, I can only say that each requires a significant redraw by the browser, and it's possible browsers don't properly handle it yet. Regardless, that issue is a browser/flash player issue, and (thankfully) not a swfobject issue. :) - philip On Sat, Mar 6, 2010 at 7:13 PM, PT <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Philip, > > Thanks for getting back to me.
