since with flash cs3 you need a preloader and the your app how to you get the flash vars in the app after it is loaded by the preloader ???

Hi cooljack,
sorry I don't get you...
this tutorial shows how to pass a variable from HTML to Actionscript.
If you load an SWF...you can't load its html code too

Does it not work ?

[cooljackD]

thks for the quick answer flep anyway i found a workaround using flash.external.ExternalInterface to pass the flashvars from the main to the externalmovie

anyway that did the trick

[cooljackD]

i have a new question, how do you retrieve both values and keys from the flashvars inorder to push them in an array ????

[cooljackD]

for (var Key:string in obj)
{
     var o:Object = {Key:obj[Key]}
     myArray.push(o);
}

You may try this one (just a simple short-code):

var obj:Object=LoaderInfo(root.loaderInfo).parameters;
try_txt1.text = String(obj['id']); // get value from variable named as 'id'
try_txt2.text = String(obj['ir']); // get value from variable named as 'ir'

Thank's.

Just simple like this ...

var obj:Object=LoaderInfo(root.loaderInfo).parameters;
text_object1.text = String(obj['variable1']); // get value from variable named as 'variable1'
text_object2.text = String(obj['variable2']); // get value from variable named as 'variable2'
