[OpenSocial] Re: how to pass variables to swf using gadgets.flash.embedFlash
it looks like _IG_ calls are being migrated to a better namespace. I
would avoid them.
How do you get your error? I might take a screenshot and post. that
looks like a regular expression. Something is breaking in flash or in
the make request object.
Does your url already have # or a ? in it? Its hard to help in the
blind on this one.
do you have firebug? can you debug it?

I tried gadgets.flash.embedCachedFlash instead of
gadgets.flash.embedFlash but it is giving error Error: D.match(/^[^?#]
+\//) has no properties
@ jdavid
I tried the option2 but it is also giving the same error Error:
D.match(/^[^?#]+\//) has no properties
I want to ask one more question, if i will use _IG_EmbedFlash instead
of gadgets.flash.embedFlash, is it ok? which one is the better way?

if you try to add a param that is unrecognized by embedFlash, it will
not add it as a parameter tag.
we found there are 2 better ways to load the swf file right now.
option1.
use swfObject1-5 it has a superior interface and is more fault
tolerant when it comes to browsers, the downside is that getting 100%
width and 100% height properties is tough with swfObject1-5. if you
want to cache the flash file(its slow right now) you will want to do a
getProxyUrl on your swf location url first, and then send that string
to swfObject1-5.
var url = http://yourdomain.com/file.swf;;
url = gadget.io.getProxyUrl(url);
option2.
use the broken embedFlash function, but encode flashvars in the url.
if the settings change, then it will re-cahce the swft object.
DO NOT DO THIS WITH PRIVATE DATA!!!
but in the case of a userid, you are probably fine.
var url = http://yourdomain.com/file.swf;;
var flashvars = var1=value1var2=value2;
url = url + ? + flashvars ; //adds flash vars to
your url
option 1 + 2
var url = http://yourdomain.com/file.swf;;
var flashvars = var1=value1var2=value2;
url = url + ? + flashvars ;
url = gadget.io.getProxyUrl(url); //proxy encode your url
+flashvars
right now there are a few options that are only available through
swfObject like
allowFullScreen //allows the flash widget to go full
screen, esc always exits fullscreen, and keyboard becomes disabled as
input into flash
allowScriptAccess //defines the javascript flash bridge
allowNetworking //defines local connection access
embedFlash will not let you set these params either by design or by
flaw, either way its not there. I think it should be there because of
adobe's overly restrictive security models, that are far more strict/
annoying than javascript.

Try using gadgets.flash.embedCachedFlash(...)
The reason your code works with the embed parameter is because it's
loaded via the gadget server proxy. This avoids any cross-domain
restrictions when loading your flash .swf directly from your site.
