draig_hand Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Hello all, I have an HTML page created using Dreamweaver CS3 which contains a SWF movie produced with Flash CS3 (movie duration 9min57secs). I have deliberately excluded the addition of a skin and the movie is placed in a ?Pause? condition when the page opens. Within the HTML I have a Javascript function which produces a duration value 'x'. (which is an integer of milliseconds) My requirement, and my problem, is that I wish to pass this duration value to the Flash video in such a way as to instruct the video to ?resume? play and then (after 'x' milliseconds duration) pause the playback and await the next ?resume? instruction from Javascript. I am aware that Javascript and Actionscript can pass instructions to and from one another using ?ExternalInterface.addCallback? and ?ExternalInterface.call?, however, all the tutorials and forum examples I have viewed to date only show how to pass text, or to run a very short video to its end and invariably they all involve the use of a button to instigate the function. Can anyone direct me to, or provide, an example that performs the functions I have described above. I hope someone can help me. Thanks.
