I just did a quick trace test, and the messages were written to the console in the following order:
1) SWFLoader load complete (registers listener for app complete) 2) embedded application creation complete handler 3) embedded application app complete handler 4) host app handler for embedded app app complete So presumably if one is setting parameters in 4) they can't be read in 3)... Tracy, are you following the recipe here (2nd answer)? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/407858/passing-flashvars-style- parameters-to-a-loaded-swf Seems to me this could only work if the loaded app is not accessing the parameters until some subsequent user gesture.
