how to pass variables to a swf by the <param name="movie...

[mem1]

In a tutorial i've read that we can pass variables from a html link (like "http://mysite/mypage.html?var1=hello") to a swf by using the following syntax :

<param name="movie" value="url.swf' + document.location.search + '">

Now, if the variable doesn't come from a link but it is known, what is the syntax following the value="url.swf... ?

thanks a lot

If the variable is created from within the page with the movie you can use

document.write('<param name="movie" value="filename.swf?variableName=' + variableValue + '">');

and to pass the variable in the embed tag

document.write('<embed src="filename.swf?variableName=' + variableValue + '"... other embed parameters here ... ');
