EDIT: Okay, I solved it and it was a lot easier than I thought, anyway, here is a solution if you want to change your swf size dynamically, delete this post if you find it unessecary
first make a swf file containing a movieclip with the instance name "sizeBtn" and add this code to frame1
import flash.external.*;
var command:String;
var targetSize:Number = 700; //the target height
sizeBtn.onRelease = function() {
command = String(ExternalInterface.call("setFlashHeight", "flashid", targetSize));
//make more buttons or functions to change to any other size
}
and publish it to get a html file, you might have to change the publish settings for the HTML a bit if the resizeing behaves strangely.
Then add
<div id="flashid" style="width:550px; height:400px;">
</div>
around the flash <object> tag (change dimensions to suit your needs)
and in the <head> tag add:
<CODE>
<script type="text/javascript">
function setFlashHeight(divid, newH){
document.getElementById(divid).style.height = newH+"px";
}
</script>
</CODE>
and test it, you should now be able to change the height of the flash file from within the swf, animations can probably be added but I haven't gotten around to that yet
