passing values of js functions to Flash

[ip]

I am having a problem passing the values of functions and variables into flash.

I got this no problem
<PARAM NAME="MOVIE" VALUE="flash_home.swf?docWidth=test">
<EMBED NAME="testcommand" SRC="flash_home.swf?docWidth=test">

But I need to do something like this.
<PARAM NAME="MOVIE" VALUE="flash_home.swf?docWidth="+getDocWidth()>

Does this make sense? This is one of my first tries with passing values to flash.

well... instead of:

<PARAM NAME="MOVIE" VALUE="flash_home.swf?docWidth="+getDocWidth()>

write:

<PARAM NAME="MOVIE" VALUE="flash_home.swf?docWidth=
<script language="JavaScript">
document.write(getDocWidth());
</script>
>

hope it helps...

sxdesign, Thanks for the help that all makes sense but it isn't passing anything. The function returns a number and I am trying to get it into Flash.

<OBJECT
ID="MySWF">
<PARAM NAME="MOVIE" VALUE="flash_home.swf?docWidth="+<script language="JavaScript">
document.write(getDocWidth());
</script>>
<EMBED
NAME="MySWF"
SRC="flash_home.swf?docWidth="+<script language="JavaScript">document.write(getDocWidth() ); </script>
swLiveConnect="true"
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>

Hi !

For that case it is better to use document.write for whole object and embed code. Or at least start writing from JS before printing <</object>
