From Moock.org :

For the purposes of this article, "fscommand()" refers mainly to Flash -> JavaScript communication (ie. Flash executing javascript statements in a web browser). However, fscommand's scope is actually broader than that. Without going into too much detail, here's a slightly longer description of fscommand():

"fscommand()" is the name of a function in Flash that provides communication with a flash movie's host application ("application" means anything that can play Flash media, whether natively, eg. the stand-alone Flash player, or with the use of a plug-in, eg. a web browser). For example, a web-based fscommand() might execute a JavaScript function from a Flash button click. (We'll see later that JavaScript can also control the Flash movie playback.) fscommand() can also communicate with Lingo and can send a limited set of built-in commands to the stand-alone Flash player (eg. "Quit", "FullScreen", "AllowScale", "ShowMenu").

If you look at my footer - the Preloader Tutorials - and check out the Javascript Percentage Preloader Bar -- it uses FS Commands to communicate with javascript and activeX in the browser ...

The built-in FS Commands in SWiSH are for the Standalone Flash Player only ...

Here is a list of additional FS Commands :

Thanks for the info Cadence. Also, that is a good idea, your footer. It places the most frequently asked questions (and answers) right at a newbie's fingertips!
