Luke. SWFObject has built in ultility methods to grab variables from the url:
http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/wiki/api swfobject.getQueryParamValue(paramStr) example: var flashvars = {}; if (swfobject.getQueryParamValue("foo") && swfobject.getQueryParamValue("abc")) { flashvars.foo = swfobject.getQueryParamValue("foo"); flashvars.abc = swfobject.getQueryParamValue("abc"); } var params = {}; var attributes = {}; swfobject.embedSWF("myContent.swf", "altContent", "800", "600", "9.0.0","expressInstall.swf", flashvars, params, attributes); test page: http://www.bobbyvandersluis.com/swfobject/testsuite_2_2/test_api_getqueryparamvalue2.html?abc=123&foo=bar In regards to posting the vars up to PHP, this is not a SWFobject issue, but a general Flash one (and would be better handled on a general Flash forum). Basically you can send via: - getURL - loadvars etc basically all flashvar values are availabe as _root level vars. You can do whatever you want to with these values once in Flash.
