Hello boyz and girlz.
Time for me to ask for help :snif:
Is it possible to connect 2 swf embeded in the same html page?
Basically what I need is that when some button is pressed in movie1.swf it should execute a function in movie2.sfw.
Is that possible?
Or even something like… to watch form each swf is something happens in other swfs.
For 5 or more(not given a specific number of embeded movieclips in that page) swfs for instance to execute the same function if something (defined) happens in other swf.
I heard something about liveConnect but it doesn’t seem to be what I need… and I don’t know what should I look for.

another question.
Is it possible to submit the values of some variables in flash along with other variables in a html form together to the same actionfile.php? With a submit button, submit action I mean.
Or any work arounds?
