Ok I found this tutorial  
[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/tricks/passingvariables.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/tricks/passingvariables.htm)

And in it it describes how to pass variables to flash from a php file. However… it doesn’t work. Here’s my php code anyone have any suggestions?

```php

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="100" height="650">
              <Param name="FlashVars" Value="variable=2">
			  <param name="movie" value="menu.swf">
              <param name="quality" value="high">
              <embed src="menu.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="100" height="650"></embed>
          </object>

```
