I have done lots of communication between flash, javascript and php but never this. I need to send variables to flash when it is already playing. I know that it is possible to send variables to flash right before loading flash and flash can load variables during runtime and flash can send variables but can i send variables to flash? I don’t remember if i have done this, but one thing is for sure that i don’t remember thus i don’t know if it’s possible.

**ExternalInterface.addCallBack** to get variables from javascript into actionscript
**ExternalInterface.call** to send variables from actionscript to javascript
Check the Help files on both of the above or see an additional example here:
