Well the links didn't go through the way I wanted, so here you go.

Boyd,
I think if you look up and use "SWFObject", you can accomplish
this, or "ASFunction" or maybe a mixture of both.
I thinking "ASFunction" would be better suited for what your needing.
Without doing more research I am guessing at which would be the
exact way,
but hopefully pointing you in the right direction.
I made the names links for convenience,
but those are just one of the resources out there.
HTH,
Karl

I have a .swf embedded in an html document and would like to pass
it a string variable from the browser when the page loads. I can't
seem to get the reference to the .swf even with
'document.getElementById("menuprime")' (I hope to use the
SetVariable(varname, varvalue) command after I can reference the
embedded .swf with javascript. I try to do this using something like:
document.getElementById("menuprime").SetVariable("mymsg", "hello");
but no luck.
this is the html ...

This is likely something obvious but I am just not able to see it

Thanks for any advice.
