In an earlier article I spoke about changing the stage size based on the URL of the page that loads the ShockWave.
Well as it turns out the simple approach I outline there won’t work in IE7 for some reason (no don’t ask me why, I didn’t find any explanation no matter how much googling I did).... Read More

Draggable & Resizable with Prototype and Scriptaculous
