    Changing a variable in AS 2 component from HTML - Panties

    How do I set/access the "Text File" variable as shown in the two pictures. _root and _global don't work.

    I also tried to access it from _root.CrosswordPuzzle.cp_words_textfile

    I don't get components.

    Updated component variable value in Actionscript 2/Flash 8

    So to further clarify, I am using FlashVars to send in the URL of a text file.

    I can get the variable into my Flash ok, but I cannot update the component variable.

    cp_words_textfile = _root.newTextFile


    It seems like the variables are cleared out when a preloader loads or something...
    patience is a hassle.
