Hi,  
I am trying to pass a variable in Flash(MX2004) but struggling with it.  
can anyone please point out my fault,I am very bad at scripting.  
This is my code in html:

\<object classid=“clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000” codebase=“[http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0](http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0)” width=“550” height=“400” id=“dtext” align=“middle”\>  
\<param name=“allowScriptAccess” value=“sameDomain”\>  
\<param name=“movie” value=“dtext.swf?texts=welcome”\>  
\<param name=“quality” value=“high”\>  
\<param name=“bgcolor” value="#ffffff"\>  
\<embed src=“dtext.swf?texts=welcome” quality=“high” bgcolor="#ffffff" width=“550” height=“400” name=“dtext” align=“middle” allowScriptAccess=“sameDomain” type=“application/x-shockwave-flash” pluginspage=“[http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer](http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer)” /\>  
\</object\>

and this is my code in flash:

\_root.onLoad();  
main.loadMovie(\_root.texts);

where ‘main’ is a movie clip which conatins a variable called ‘texts’ to show the text entered in the html

Thanks very much.
