    Ok first, lets make our document, now when building flash sites, i always try and make the main stage 800 x 600 so that even the people with 800 x 600 reso. they can still see the page. So how do people have a full flash page without the background running out on the stage? Well, putting the content off the stage is a great way to do so!. now look at this image, this is what we will be creating

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Notice how the stage is directly in the middle, and the content goes off the stage, youll see why we do this a bit later. Lets go to our page, and create a background, i will make some other tutorials on make backgrounds in flash, for now, just create some lines all over the page, like mine.
    Now, make sure it covers everything!, not just the stage, by the way the stage is the middle area, you know the stuff in the white, and the gray stuff is what the people wont be seeing. Ok so why are we putting it there anyway? Well we'll be creating it 100% at 100%, so the background will be all over the page, not just in the middle, neat huh? You can use this effect to create anything you want, Here is the final product, Notice that even when you resize your window, the flash expands to the edges.
