Passing flashvars into a swf is not going to break any buttons or functionality within your file.
Either some code was not correct inside of your swf, or your javascript was not correct in some way. Please do not post untrue or unverified information as it may confuse others or cause them to go down the wrong path in trying to solve their issues. There are params such as "allowscriptaccess" which need to have a value set in order to allow buttons actions which interact with the host HTML page such as getURL() and ExternalInterface invoked javascript functions. re: "if adobe adopted this as a standard then flash is dead on the web." - Please don't ask for help here if you are not willing to spend the time to work out or understand something before criticizing it.
