Hi Dharmendra 

While you don't have access to JavaScript, would the old school methods still 
work such as setting a Flash variable on the active x control. Back in older 
versions of Flash the only way to communicate between the browser and the 
ActiveX was to use things like setVariable then inside Flash you would have a 
watch expression that watched for changes to that variable, and reacted. The 
variable value could only be a string (I think). Back then we would change the 
value of the variable from outside, have Flash react to the change, reset the 
value of the variable to its "non-set" state. Assuming this would still work, 
when the .NET application regained focus you would tell the ActiveX instance to 
setVariable("focusReceived", "true"); and in Flash it would see that, reset the 
listeners. One word of warning, if your resetting your listeners constantly, 
are you doing anything to remove the old listeners first - if not that may well 
be the source of your memory leak. I used the setVariable method in VB with the 
old Flash active x controls a number of years ago and it worked flawlessly, you 
just have to set it up right to begin with and it was obviously "messier" then 
the ExternalInterface method.

Hi Manish, 

Thanks for the suggestion. 

I wish , I could use java script to set the Focus but I do not have luxury of 
Java Script as My application is running as ActiveX control inside dot net 
based application. 

Once the callback broken , communication from Ashokwave lib to swf is not 
possible. 

This is really a serious issue, I need some work around to fix it as I could 
not wait till the adobe fix it. 

Regards, 
Dharmendra
