You can embed everything inside of the SWF file !
And don't forget that HTML is a STATIC page (you can't exchange variables with a SWF file).
To do that you need ACTIVE pages: PHP,CGI,ASP,etc
I was talking about ONLINE applications (not about screensavers ...LOL)
cheers

The best technique to communicate between the "browser" and the SWF file is to use ACTIVE pages and to send/receive variables (strings,arrays). Visit my site to see some "samples".
A real PRO doesn't use FS commands ...
Hmmmm, I'm not sure they use Flash intros in 2004 either. What you are saying here makes no real sense. I know I can transmit data from flash player to server using URL variables or what have you, but I'm not interested in that right now. I want the client to handle its own affairs. Why would FSCommands be so much lamer than making a server call, just so you can send the info back to the same client? That's ridiculous. I know lots of Flash developers who are PROS in every sense of the word, and I sincerely doubt any one of them would consider the architecture you're advocating to be professional.
