Jason,
Great news... I just switched to strings as
well! :) I can't tell you how happy I am that I found this group. It is so
helpful to be able to share ideas. I'll tell you, my Tango/Flash integration has
really come a long way thus far. Here are some of the important things I've
found for those who care.
My first attempt at the integration
worked well, but was a little unorthodox. I used an lesser known method of the
flash player object: the setVariable() method. After
instantiating the flash object and playing my movie I called a number of
set Variables similar to this (animation was the ID of my Flash player
object):
window.document.animation.SetVariable("flashVariableNameHere","value
to pass, can also be JavaScript var"); // Bad way to do
this.

Pete,
I�d be happy to talk to you; my
contact info is at the bottom. I�m hoping to
put together a little suite of
test apps (Scott put us all to shame with
everything he put together!) to
show how it works, but haven't had a chance
yet.
There are two ways to
get the data in and out; via XML or with strings of
name/value pairs of
variables. We've used the latter and it's pretty
straightforward but not as
fast as we'd like. (only a concern if youre
adding lots of data) - we want to
try the xml method and see if it's
speedier. I suspect it may
be...
Thanks also to lee for his kind words - we were really flattered
with the
response we received.
Jason
