For what it's worth, some of the various browsers *did* return JavaScript values to plugins after receiving a "javascript:" pseudo-URL. I haven't tested whether any of the current browsers work like this. But like all that underdocumented stuff, it worked in some browsers, didn't work in others, and was subject to side-effects in many cases (didn't work with WMODE on, etc). Some of the browsers *do* offer a documented, tested, and supported plugin/browser intercommunication scheme, and where such an ability is offered the Macromedia Flash Player has exploited it, under the general "FSCommand" interface. I see lots of people continue to promote "javascript:" pseudo-URLs and this worries me, just because of the great variability of browser support for this ability. jd -- John Dowdell .
