Controlling Flash with EI

I'm trying to get Lectora 9.3 to control a SWF under the Flash Player 10 with ActionScript 3.


In the SWF I have some AS that look like this


ExternalInterface.addCallback("loadMovies", loadMyMovies);


function loadMyMovies(str:String):void {

// blah

}


Within Lectora I'm using an action with

Action: Flash Command

Target: mySWF

Command: Call Function

Name: loadMovies

Value: foo.swf


When I HTML publish the course and run it off a web server IE 8 complains that there's an error (a generic one in the SWF's javascript).


If I hand build a HTML page for the SWF the calls to the SWF behave as expected.


Can anyone provide some guidance on how to get this to work within Lectora?
