I am trying to either "geturl" or "loadmovie" the following scipt into a flash movie (version8):

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.marcakesson.com/ammap/swfobject.js"></script>
<div id="flashcontent">
If you see this message, you need to <a href="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" target="_blank">upgrade your flash player</a></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("http://www.marcakesson.com/ammap/ammap.swf", "ammap", 720, 400, "7", "#666666");
so.addVariable("mapid", 1);
so.addVariable("mapas", 15);
so.addVariable("path", "http://www.marcakesson.com/ammap/");
so.addVariable("ext", "php");
so.addParam("scale", "noscale");
so.addParam("salign", "lt");
so.write("flashcontent");
</script>


CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN THE CORRECT FORMAT IN FLASH8 - I can get the URL to load but can not pass along all the variables...

Thanks - just a beginner...

What are you trying to accomplish here? What does this javascript do? This javascript looks like it should be the placeholder for a swf file on the web page, are you trying to load it into a swf file???

geuURL - Loads a document from a specific URL into a window or passes variables to another application at a defined URL. To test this function, make sure the file to be loaded is at the specified location. To use an absolute URL (for example, http://www.myserver.com), you need a network connection

loadMovie - Loads a SWF, JPEG, GIF, or PNG file into a movie clip in Flash Player while the original SWF file is playing. Support for unanimated GIF files, PNG files, and progressive JPEG files is added in Flash Player 8. If you load an animated GIF, only the first frame is displayed.

thanks Mike, what I am trying to do is launch AMMAP.SWF which resides on a different server/drive from my flash movie. AMMAP needs to be launched with certain settings (see below) in order to work properly. The script tells AMMAP the settings. I can launch AMMAP.SWf but don't know who to pass along the variables. Especially important are the size settings "720x400"
