I would like to be able to control a flash movie stream using JavaScript in the same pages as the flash component including:
I can already load the player and set the flash args, but I don’t know how to interact with the player once the stream has started. Is this possible without modifying the SWF that is currently used to play the movie?
Mike.
The SWF needs to expose functions to Javascript using the ExternalInterface API from the Flash libraries. This allows Javascript to call into Flash and vice-versa.
