Hi All,
I’ve been struggling getting JavaScript to Communicate back to my flash app.
Works fine in IE. But Firefox is making me lose my hair fast!
the framingSoftware SWF calls the addFrame JS function, the alert appears fine, but nothing is received back in flash…
Please can someone help me out!
I’m using SWFObject. AS3.
Thanks
