swfresize is a small bit of JavaScript that helps a “full-screen” Flash application be as large as possible and still maintain it's aspect ratio, and keep everything within the viewable area of the browser.

Features:

• Allow SWF to be 100% within the browser window
• Force minimum width for SWF
• Force a certain amount of the SWF height to always be “above the fold” (perfect for SWFs that are taller than they are wider)
• Keeps the aspect ratio of original SWF file
• Great for “full-screen” Flash applications
• Works with SWFObject
• Only takes two lines of code to implement

• Prevents movieclips and shapes that are not on the stage from being seen (bleeding over the edge of the SWF stage)
• A much better option than simply saying your movie is 100% wide and 100% high

Demos

• Burnt Toast Opera (http://www.burnttoastopera.com) – Notice how the “Buy Me Love” section is always above the fold no matter what size the browser is at, as long as it's wider than the minimum width.
