I'm using the following code to embed the swf and load a file via flashvars. It works fine in firefox...but does not work in IE. I'm convinced that the issue is in my html syntax. Can anyone spot the problem?
<script type="text/javascript">
swfobject.embedSWF("myflash.swf", "banner", "300", "300", "9.0.0", false, {}, {wmode: "transparent"},{flashvars: "xmlfile=http://www.mydomain.com/directory/file.xml"});
function closeAd(id){
document.getElementById(id).style.display='none';
}
</script>

I've got a weird problem with loading Flashvars into my flash application. I tried to isolate the code and try it in an other document, but the object returned is still empty.This is my HTML code:
<div id="Div1">
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="630" height="671" id="testApp" align="middle">[code]......
It show begin nicely in the console window of Chrome, but it does not print the flashvars.

I have a video player swf which loads in a flv file via flashvars. This works perfectly, but when it reaches the end it loops ie Goes back to start and plays again. This only happens when it is embedded in a page because when I press cntl+Enter to preview as swf alone it works.

I am trying to find a very good step by step tutorial on using "Flashvars" to load external mp3 files, I have been searching on google and the many I have found fall short in some way or another. From what I have been able to gather, I have tried using the code in red (commented out), which works, and modify it to use "Flashvars". The code that works, the mp3 file is hard coded, but my goal is to use "Flashvars" which I am attempting to do in the code following the code in red. I am also including the html code.

I have never used flashVars, even in AS2, but the project I'm working on requires that I use since my client is going to use dynamic urls defined as expressions and he wants to have control without having to edit a fla file. I have read a lot of tutorials and can't seem to come up with a solution. Basically what I want is to load my Flashvars defined in swfObject, each one holding an expression, for example:

How will I accomplish the same thing in as3? I know you have to get flashVars using .loaderInfo but that as far as i got.

I have a fla file that i am using on my page, i want the twitter object to be embedded inside my fla but there is no direct link to the file. The twitter site will give me a code to paste, but the code has a general link and some flashvars info. How would i be able to embed into my fla if there is no direct link? If i use divs to place the object on top of my flash it blinks and sometimes will not show at all.

I have a flash file with an xml file as flashvars. when I use this code it works in every browser, but not in IE 7 or higher.
OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"

After reading a lot, SWFObject seem to be a good option. All u need to do is:
1- Include swfobject.js in header
2- Create an empty div for the flash object to be included
<div id="myContent">
<p>Alternative content</p>
</div>[code].....
The only problem I have is: I don't know how to pass the flashvars via a url for an xml file. It seems to me that SWFObject does not support this. Instead, you need to create a list of flashvars as
var flashvars = {
name1: "hello",
name2: "world",[code]....

I can't seem to remove / unload the external swf files e.g when the carousel.swf (portfolio) is displayed and I press the about button the about content is overlapping the carousel (portfolio) . How can I remove / unload an external swf file from the main flash file and load a new swf file, while at the same time removing garbage collection from memory?

All I'm trying to do is load an external .swf file into a precise location on the stage of my existing Flash file. I've spent an hour and a half on this site search and found nothing. What do I add to my loadMovie command to place the file at specific x,y coordinates?

I'm trying to load an xml file from via http into my flash 8 file. Locally it works fine but when on the server it fails. I assume this has to do the flash security sandbox. How do I get around this. I own the servers so is there some sort of fix that I upload to allow the swf to receive the data?

I am trying to load a txt file into flash by putting the url in an xml file. The XML file is structured like this:
HTML Code:
<pic>
<image>pictures/AW0001.jpg</image>
<description>text/AW0001.txt</description>
</pic>
Now I load it into arrays in flash: image[0] and description[0]. The images is displayed the way I want to, the thing is I want to pass on the url that is in description[0] to a loadMovie or something like that. If i say desc_txt.text = description[0]; it will just show AW0001.txt in flash. I've also tried this with load and loadVars but I can't figure it out.
