I have a Flash/AS3 project I am trying to add a call back on, I added the call back like so:

ExternalInterface.addCallback('force_refresh',force_refresh); 

and I am calling in from JS like this:

function thisMovie(movieName) {     if (navigator.appName.indexOf('Microsoft') != -1) {         return window[movieName];     } else {         return document[movieName];     } } function forceRefresh() {     thisMovie('monthly_goals').force_refresh(); } 

I made sure I am importing the ExternalInterface class, I set allowScriptAccess to ‘always’, I alerted thisMovie(‘monthly_goals’) and confirmed that JS sees the object.

Not sure why else it would not be working? any ideas?

Thanks.

    So my call back method was expecting a parameter and I was not passing one when calling it from JS, so I guess it was just failing silently.
