flash variables.
February 21, 2005 12:00 AM
Is it possible to set variables to the flash object using Lectora? I just need to send a flash "video player" the name of the file it is supposed to load. There are no "param" settings for an animation so I cant set it there, and I cant seem to be able to add a switch after the filename, like ?bla=something etc. Can anyone help?thanks.

That is one way of doing it (one that I use quite often). There is another way by using the Flash Command. Using this action you can set variables in flash.
What does "salign" mean? I see it in the new Media Gallery in one of the flash parameters but I can't figure out what it does.What does "salign" mean? I see it in the new Media Gallery in one of the flash parameters but I can't figure out what it does.
I answered my own question...I just insert an html object with the typical flash object insert code, then put a questionmark after the filename in both the embed and object parameters and set root level variables to the flash object from within lectora...like this:You put that right in lectora. I still havent tested to see how that comes out in the aicc publish...but hopefully that helps some people.cheers
