In order for this to work, you need a copy of AC_RunActiveContent.js. It's literally everywhere on the Internet. Just Google it and take your pick.

In order for this code to work, the settings must be configured to work with your Flash swf. The above code will pass 2 variables, var1=$1 and var2=$2, using FlashVars. Your Flash code in actionscript can then be configured to read the variables within the Flash file using _root.var1 and _root.var2. What you choose to do with the information that gets passed is now up to you. For more information on how to use AC_RunActiveContent, visit the Adobe Knowledgebase.]]>
