I tried to send a string from an html page (with javascript) to a swf file (action script 2).
i searched in google, found this page.
but the example code (version 1, not 2, you can find it in the source file .zip) didn't work in IE (IE said: object doesn't support this property or method)
where is the problem? (i don't want to use SWFObject.)
the action script :::

//View post at http://blog.circlecube.com/2008/02/01/actionscript-javascript-communication/
import flash.external.*;
//Set up Javascript to Actioscript
var methodName:String = "sendTextFromHtml";
var instance:Object = null;
var method:Function = recieveTextFromHtml;
var wasSuccessful:Boolean = ExternalInterface.addCallback(methodName, instance, method);
//Actionscript to Javascript
//ExternalInterface.call("recieveTextFromFlash", _root.theText.text);
function recieveTextFromHtml(t) {
_root.theText.text = t;
}
_root.button.onRelease = function() {
ExternalInterface.call("recieveTextFromFlash", _root.theText.text);
_root.theText.text = "";
}
js:::
function recieveTextFromFlash(Txt) {
document.getElementById('htmlText').value = Txt;
}
and the onclick js code:::
getElementById('flash').sendTextFromHtml(htmlText.value); document.getElementById('htmlText').value = ''
Thank you.
