Suppose you want to master Flash
… and you want to capture the lessons in notes … that you'd write onto your long-abandoned website … starting with nearly nothing and building. How would you begin?

I think I'll try embedding a flash from a previous effort to learn. The little make-the-box-do-things flash piece.
Published the html in Flash, copied and pasted from the published .html file: only the code from object-open-tag to close-object-tag. I placed the .swf in a folder called "flash," so I had to correct the path.
When I try to view locally, I can't see the flash movie. But on the server, I see it fine.
In trying to use style to center the movie, I see behavior I can't understand. In the object tag and embed tag I add style = margin information -- auto doesn't work at all; top and bottom margin seems to work in embed tag but not in object tag, while left margin settings add up what's in object tag and embed tag. A containing div tag can affect the margin, but it won't properly center it; auto in all left/right margins (div, object, embed) does NOTHING. Just floats left. align="middle" does NOTHING.
