Hi Pekka
are you perhaps simply looking for
externalParamValue ("SRC")
-- this will give you the portion of the object and embed tag that contains
the shockwave movies location (at least relative to the html page laumching
it. It will also retrieve the querystring if any that has been added to
the url of the dcr (does that make any sense?)
IE. if you had the src param setup as
something.dcr?what=nothing&who=someone
then the externalParamValue("SRC") would return
something.dcr?what=nothing&who=someone
and you can then parse it out if you so desire.
A much better way to handle the situation if your say using asp or something
similar to generate the page would be to have the asp page parse the
querystring as handed to the page and place them into sw parameters. If I
recall correctly, you will need to use sw1 to sw9 as the parameters.. I
believe IE pukes if you use custom named parameters while netscrap will
handle custom named parameters properly.
Therefore if I was using asp it would work out something like
param = sw1 value= <% =Request.QueryString("what") %>
param = sw2 value = <% =Request.QuerySting("who") %>
(or however the appropriate method of writing the object tag parameters is).
Then inside the movie, you make the assumption that sw1 is equal to what and
sw2 is equal to who and handle it accordingly.
don't know if that helps you or not
Sincerly
