Passing messages to Flash

I need to talk to a flash movie VIA javascript. Is there come lovely "flashObject.paramName=whatever" that I can use?

Also, if this doesn't exist, I figure I can manually adjust the param tags via the DOM+javascript and reload the movie. Will this work?

Thanks,
Neil

not sure if this will help??

I didn't search flashkit.com's forum but they may be a good place to check as well if those links above don't help out...

Good, ol' macromedia. Thanks Pank!

neil, you also might check out Colin Moock's flash info at moock.org, there's should be something relative to this in there...

Thanks man, I'll poke around.

Ain't Moock the guy who had the tripped out cylindrical spinning menu thingy? His current site is disapointing if he's the same guy.

um, maybe, dunno. he wrote the definitive actionscript guide and speaks at a lot of conventions. he's definitely a coder and not a designer. his site's been boring (like the current version) for a while now, but he definitely knows his stuff...
