I've been developing a site for a local political party
(http://www.coryellgop.org). The domain was on shared hosting and has now
been moved to my own server. Navigation between pages was done using one
of the menu templates that came with Flash 5 and looked very nice on the
old shared hosting server. When we made the move, the navigation .swf
started displaying *VERY* small and is now really unreadable.

I would really prefer not to move to a .js menu for this, but the client
likes the ability to display and hide certain menu items to reduce screen
clutter. Nothing I've tried doing to the movie has worked and I still
haven't really figured out how to make dynamic menus using MX 2004
Professional.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

I do believe your problem is in how you coded your tables in your HTML document.

When I zoom the flash player in your menu grows but disappears below your table rows at the top and at the bottom.

Try making your HTML code for the table to read like this for the <TD /> holding the flash movie, I notice that you have a 3 row table and are using <COLSPAN>:

<td style="width:yourdesiredwidth; height:yourdesiredheight" colspan=3></td>

This is if you want the menu to be top to bottom on the left hand side of your page.

Alternatively you may also use a frameset and put the movie in the lefthand frame and target a content frame on the right.

Also, dump the Zoom param in your <object /> tags.

different paths to swf files in OBJECT and embed tags
Fot twO;

That was exactly it!

This was also puzzling me.

Actually, I went back to Flash MX (it was done in MX, not Flash 5) and had
it regenerate a new .html page and then I used the generated HTML in my
template.

That was the *VERY* first thing to go.

Thanks again!
