RE: FLASH: FS_Command, Javascript -> Flash [passing variable]

[Susan Yoo]

I haven't been following this string, but I've just been working with the

Flash technote mentioned below, specifically with "Using JavaScript

methods". . .

. . .but to no avail.

My variable is not getting passed through from the JavaScript to Flash.

I kept getting a Javascript error: "window.document.movie has no

properties".  I elminated the <a href> tag and that eliminated a Javascript

error from being prompted, but the variable is not being passed.


Am I doing something wrong or missing something?  Can someone try to see if

it works for them?


I've put together a test movie as was indicated in the notes, cut and paste

the Javascript and additional tags, and even tried unlocking the Shockwave

Flash NP-PPC plug-in (Flash Technote 14227, "JavaScript communication with

Flash not working in Netscape/Macintosh").


Thanks for any help in advance.
