see pipwerks.com has examples of both static & dynamic publishing
http://pipwerks.com/lab/swfobject/ExternalInterface/2.0/index.html
from what I can see you have not got a way to target the swf after
registering it. You have this function outputStatus but I don't see where
or when its being called - but if you use getObjectById to set the var sobj
(leaving it global) within the start, stop and replay functions I think
you'd be fine (ex interface is a PIA lots of bits to match up - right bits
to send, corresponding bits to receive too)
but Philips example you have the following function:
var swf = swfobject.getObjectById("*ExternalInterfaceExample*");
swf.sendTextToFlash(text);
}
<object id="*ExternalInterfaceExample**"*
classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="550"
height="200">
<param name="movie" value="ExternalInterfaceExample.swf" />
<!--[if !IE]>-->
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
data="ExternalInterfaceExample.swf" width="550" height="200">
<!--<![endif]-->
<p>Please update your Flash Player</p>
<!--[if !IE]>-->
</object>
<!--<![endif]-->
</object>
