This is the code above the <object> code
<%
dim video
video = request("video")
response.write(video)
%>
The response.write indicates that the correct parm is being read.
I'm a newbie at this flash code but it seems that there might be a way
to somehow declare a variable in the flash code. I have no way of
doing that. I create a flash move from a MP4 movie with a free
converter I found.
I'm at my wit's end trying to figure this out. It seems like it
should be so simple but I can't get it to work. I think I'm
overlooking some simple thing.
Thanx
Harry
