Posted: Sun Sep 28, 2008 8:15 am     centering an image and flash in same position  

Hi all,

i want to be able to place an image of 900 x 792 on my website with it centered width only, then on top of this place my flash (swf)which is also 900 x 792.
The flash file is quite big and takes a while to load, so ive took the background image from the flash and positioned this 1st on screen so something is there showing till the flash kicks in.

I used:

Code: <div style="position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px;">
My code for the image
</div>
<div style="position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px;">
My code for the flash
</div>

OK this works fine and looks good on my 1024 x 768 screen, however a few of my friends says they have a big gap to the right on there widescreens, so to even it out i think it would look best if i could center the image and flash so on a 1024 x 768 it will look like full screen and on a widescreen it would have equal gaps at either side..

But im lost how to do this...

Can any one help ?

Thanks

You won't be able to have it centered and absolutely positioned. You will need to pick one or the other.
