Hello all,

Please show me how to use on flash movie to control another flash movie

Basically, we are sharing flash music in a forum. If we want to reply a one movie, we have to hit Browser Refresh

I want to create a small control that can interface with any flash movie that is loaded on the same page. This interface can mute, forward, backward, increasing or decreasing volume etc.

Is it possible??

Please please help.

Hi macneilslt,

Thanks for the link. After I went over the material, I think we have to code both movie. My goal to code only onside-the interface, because the flash movies will be upload by my users

Thanks
