Question

I want to pass some image names and numbers as string to my flash, so in html file I have :

src="imgvid-00.swf?imageData=image00/00.gif,3,image00/01.gif,6,image00/02.gif,10"

in flash swf I have a class like this:

package src{
    import flash.display.*;
    import flash....

    public class imgvid extends MovieClip {
        public var dataBANK:Array = new Array();        

        public function imgvid():void {
            //put all var in Array dataBANK     
        }
    }
}

How I do this?
I try :
public var paramObj = this.loaderInfo.parameters;
but that does not work …

You need to pass paramters in as flashvars. query parameters are not passed into flash in the way you have in your example. Read up about flashvars here:

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="550" height="400" id="myFlashMovie" align="middle">
    <param name="movie" value="myFlashMovie.swf" />
    <param name=FlashVars value="myVariable=Hello%20World&mySecondVariable=Goodbye">
    <!--[if !IE]>-->
    <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="myFlashMovie.swf" width="550" height="400">
        <param name="movie" value="myFlashMovie.swf" />
        <param name=FlashVars value="myVariable=Hello%20World&mySecondVariable=Goodbye">
    <!--<![endif]-->
        <a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflash">
            <img src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif" alt="Get Adobe Flash player" />
        </a>
    <!--[if !IE]>-->
    </object>
    <!--<![endif]-->
</object>

using swf object to do all this makes it easier than doing it manually as above
