Hm. I haven't used ExternalInterface at al (I'm stuck with Flash 7),
so I'm not really sure what the problem could be. Though you might be
able to do it as a callback (have the javascript function call some
function in your Flash movie to give it the value). The control flow
for that would be a bit odd, but it might work if you can't get it to
return correctly.

yeah, I can alert the value (real fun with a set interval =P). Just
getting it from JS seems to be the issue.
yep, QuickTime, their documentation rocks for javascript ;)
