Alignment question...

First of all I'm new here so let me first say hi to everybody. :)
I consider myself a beginer so please bare with me.

What I'm trying to accomplish is THIS.

This flash file is bigger (width) than the actual browser, yet I'm not getting the normal scroll bars, and it seems like its centered in the browser window even with lower resolutions. Does anybody know how to do this?
I want my flash animation to look full screen (width) on most monitors while keeping the important information towards the center. Which is why I would like to have it automatically centered within the browser.

Any help would be appreciated.

hmmm... i can see your problem but I'm not a Flash expert in any way. However, I don't think Flash deals with centering and size in a browser. You can set up tables in which to place your flash components. Otherwise it will show up as it will.

Someone with more Flash knowledge than I might know of a way to do it with action scripts but I'm not that cognizant.

Hay thanks. So do you think using a table is my best bet? I'll give it another try. I've tried but it seems like everytime the table is bigger than the browser, it aligns it to the left side. Even if I choose "align center" on the table. I looked at the source of the page I'm trying to emulate. There was some java script in there but I couldnt desipher it. Dont know if thats what makes it work.
