Trying to pass FlashVars into my Flash document which is embedded on a wordpress page. To some extent it is working.



Just seeing if anyone knows why $myvariable wont get passed into Flash via Flash Vars. To get it in there, I have to copy the entire PHP script and paste it in there.



<?php
blah blah
$myvariable = "some php value"
echo $myvariable
?>


That will show the results some php value on my page.

Now if I have Flash in there and I want to put that value from $myvariable into Flash I should be able to do in the object and embed tag kind of like this

<param name=FlashVars value="name=<?php echo $myvariable?>"

The problem is at the point, it doesn't know what $myvariable is. IF I put that entire php code in there it works.

How can I get it to just use the variable?

I have tried in front of the php and throughout but can't get it to work.
