Help needed in getting data from aspx page

Hi,

I have a aspx page where I have to embed my flash file.
I have a page where users will write their stories and some stories will be released in future date.
the dates are stored in database

My question is.

I have to show a flash countdown in that page. I am ready with all the flash countdown page with hard coded date. It will be helpful if anybody show me some tutorials and explain me to send data from aspx page to flash and load data from aspx page to flash.

If I am not wrong to load we can use loadVariables() …?

thanks in advance
Harish
