Passing a javascript variable

programming flash
1

Hi! :beer:

I have this Javascript function on my HTML…


<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function variaFunction(){
    var varia = "something";
    return varia;
}
</script>

… and the following code on flash…


import flash.external.*;
cima.onRelease = function(){
    var varia = ExternalInterface.call("variaFunction");
    texto.text = varia;
    barra._x = varia - 18;
}

It works perfectly on FireFox, but it doesnt work on Internet Explorer. On IE when, the java function is executed, it passes a null value. Why??

Thanks!
