You can also use a bit of JavaScript code to simply pass whatever URL
parameters have been specified for the HTML on to your SWF, if that's
what you're after. I usually edit the HTML template and include the
following:
// In the Globals area near the top
var myvars = new String(document.location).split('?')[1];
// the line in AC_FL_RunContent that specifies flashvars
"flashvars",'historyUrl=history.htm%3F&lconid=' + lc_id + '&' +
myvars,
