You can pass query string data into flash movies. That is; if you put something like:


Wherever you'd normally write the name of a movie (i.e. in the object tag value and/or embed tag src); then that variable "myvar" will be available from the _root object within flash (in this case; _root.myvar will be equal to "hello")

this page explains it in a bit more detail:

that's probably the cleanest way to do what you're trying to do. Let me know if it works; I've not used Flash versions past about 6... but, I don't see any reason why they'd remove this feature in a present version..
