    go to frame external var problem

    I want to go to a certain frame when the swf is loaded. The frame variable comes from html (nav.swf?movietype=animation) the var is loaded in the swf but the flash won't go to the needed frame. I'm desperate, sometimes it works, sometime it don't... is there a way to do this?

    hi,

    The preferred way is using FlashVars, instead of the query string.

    I've never heard of problems doinf it either way.

    Just make sure you use both the param and embed tags.

    Then, the variable movietype comes available in the main timeline.
