    Default getURL flash in a Command, doesnt work.

    I am trying to get a flash file displaying in a Command (or a floater, either
    would be preferable at this point!) and for the most part its working, although
    when I execute getURL from the flash file, the flash file dissapears and right
    clicking on the place where the flash file was gives you a "Movie not loaded"
    message (ghosted).

    While I'm not particularly attached to using getURL, I AM attached to the idea
    of the flash file talking to javascript on the page that the command lives,
    enabling the real USEFULNESS of this idea/approach. I've also tried using
    fscommand but it seems to do the same thing. The new External Interface API
    doesnt work either, the example given on
    [url]http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/external_interface.html[/url] ends up with
    no javascript alert happening and an "undefined" in the text feild in flash.

    Am I doing something wrong here? Is there some kind of security problem that I
    have run into? I've tried setting my security settings in the Global Security
    Panel to "allow all", but this state of flash promiscuity seems to do nothing
    to assist in my flash-file-in-a-dreamweaver-command attempts...

    Is there more to this? Or am I just trying to do something impossible? Replies
    will be welcomed...

    Yikes, you posted this nearly a year ago and no response? I'm in the same boat.
