expand page to fit resolution

[neilkw]

hi, it's been done before but can i find it!

Just designing a site and my client wants the homepage to expand to fill the users screen resolution so as to set off the smaller flash display in the very centre. How do I set that screen to fill the users monitor.
cheers

The screen fills every user's monitor, they are one and the same. Be more precise in your question, please.

aplogies, just need to assign script so that a web page completely fills the viewable area on load. ie no other windows are viewable. so if a user has a 800x600 screen, the web page fills to the extremeties of the resolution of the screen.

I intend to do a flash presentation of around 200x200 pielx in the very centre.
is this making sense?

You cannot do this unless the link to the page is under your control. If it is, you can do like so:

<a href="flash_page.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href, '','left=0, top=0, width='+screen.availWidth+', height='+screen.availHeight);return false;">Flash Page</a>
