I created E-learning object using presenter 09 and I have few questions about it :
How can I create a button thats excute java script by pushing on ?
what if I want to resize my whole project or edit canvas size ?
I uploaded my project using scorm on lms but videos are too heavy to work on it . what if I want it to run localy from any hard disk by setting a destination to it ?

I can take a stab at your first question about a Javascript call via button... I faced the same need. After some research, including some advice from the good folks here on the forum, here is what we came up with...
You are likely going to have to get into Flash (or a flash-lite) authoring tool and create some simple Action Script. The AS function you want is called getURL and it points to the Javascript. It will likely wind up looking something like this:
getURL("javascript:xxxxxxxxxxxx()");
Where the xxx's are the name of your Javascript function.
In Flash...
Create or copy a button graphic
Create layers as desired (hover, etc)
Attach the getURL function to an Onclick or Onrelease command for you button.
Publish and insert that SWF onto a slide in your PPT.
PS: Remember to use AS2 (not AS3) and of course put the actual Javascipt function in the header of your html player page after publishing.

Hi Ahmed and welcome to Heroes!
1. Not sure what you are trying to do here but perhaps you can achieve what you are trying to do by using a web object:

3. I would take a look at this article, particularly how to use the FLV calculator to get reasonably sized videos to include in your presentation:
