At http://www.hamncheez.com/~noeffort/tftl.htm, the flash plugin does not display at the intended width and height. This does work correctly in MSIE6. I can see this problem in Netscape 6.1 and 6.2 (mozilla0.9.2.1, 0.9.4). I have not tested with 0.9.5. I am on Win2K, but I'd be willing to bet that this problem is cross-platform.

It sort of looks like we are doing the right thing because the same thing is seen in Nav 4.x. In IE, the ActiveX control is rendered through the OBJECT tag which specifies a width and height. In Mozilla, we render the EMBED tag which does not have any dimentions so we pick a default. Should we inherit from the OBJECT tag in the case there isn't anything specified for EMBED?
