Re: FLASH: ASP and Flash

[Gregg Caines]

The easiest way is through the querystring.  Once you've read

from the ASP's querystring, you can send it to the SWFs

querystring.  Like this:


<% blahvar = Request.querystring("blah") %>


Then in your object/imbed tags, anywhere it says the SWF file,

replace it with:


movie.swf?flashblahvar=<%= blahvar %>


(where movie.swf is the name of your SWF, of course)


A variable in your SWF called 'flashblahvar' will then have the

value you gave it.
