Yep, some problems with that approach (executing flash functions from
a the JS in the surrounding page) prompted (in part) the release of
NS7 after discovering that it didn't work with NS6 and Flash (6?)
movies. Iirc it's not at all difficult -- you expose the function as
_global.myFunction() in your flash movie and then in DOM you get your
object can call the method from that object.
document.getElementById('mymovie').myFunction(); -- or syntax to that
effect... I haven't done it recently tho, so my example may be rusty.
