done this kinda before, but not with a footer and standards in mind
want to have a site layout like this (sort of):
|***************|
|***************|
|*** main swf ****|
|***************|
|***************|
| |
| footer with padding |no margin on bottom / 100%
the pipes are shadow gifs spanning 100% of the viewport,
and the middle cell/div holds both the main swf at 550px aligned to the top, and a html footer at the bottom (probably through %)i am getting super close through a table based design, and even a compliant div based one, but the footer keeps breaking one way or another - expecially in IE 5.0 MAC, which is what my client uses at their office ;(
any suggestions as to how to lay this thing out more efficiently
would be greati really don't want to use letterbox frameset
divs would awesome!

don't have a MAC or IE 5 here, but am testing it with friends right now
waiting for screengrabs from them to see how the footer is breaking...

you could use only the swf [without tables], and with the help of Actionscript, center/move the content movieclip.
something like this:

that's a really cool idea, but i really want the edge shadow effect on both sides, and was planning of the footer being just html, well php really - to keep the copyright up to date
Somehow i want to have that middle container span the whole viewport at all res's
know whatta mean?
