If you wanted to have a placeholders width and height set dynamicaly, how
would you do it?

Example, I have a template that uses <PresentationTemplate> to display flash
files. The problem is that every flash file that is uploaded is not the same
demensions. The placeholder needs to expand or contract depending on the
flash file demensions. Or to be able to set the demensions during edit mode?

help?

Hi

One way is to simply not specify the height and width. The image will be
displayed in its actual size.

Hi Donnie,

actually you would need to store the dimensions somewhere. Check out the
following control which allows an author to define the size:
