Problems with responsiveness on a flash element

[mattpone]

I have been asked to drop a flash element into the quick facts area of a test site. But as it doesn't resize it is overflowing to the right on tablets etc. Is there any way that I can prevent this from happening?

What settings do you have in your css file for the Flash object and for the container it is being dropped into?

Hi it is inside the following div <div id="swiffycontainer" style="width: 300px; height: 250px;"> If I take the width out of it it dissapears completely and if I set it to max-width: 300px it resizes very very slowly as you scroll on a mobile and doesn't display properly in IE

You had mentioned that it gives a problem on tablets. Are you having errors in mobile browsers and in IE? Is the site designed to handle mobile devices? You do need to set the width for the container div in your css file. It can cause quirks mode inline if you are using html5. You should have a viewport setting for mobile devices and you should also have a setting for embeds.

To get help with troubleshooting your css issues, it helps if you can tell us what doctype you are using and you can post the parts of the css file that are giving you problems.
