Hello People,

Hope you are all good,

New to this forum so would appreciate a warm welcome in the form of as much help as possible.

Currently sitting here working on a flash cart project for a client sipping on some ammereto trying to get my head round a little problem I have literally just stumbled upon. A tad silly I did not consider it when planning!

Anyway more to the point;

What I have done is built a container, and that container loads an individual external swf per single product. So they click product one and product on appear within that container. They click product two and product one is unloaded and product two is loaded into the same container.

Now the problem is making the flashvars work with the externally loaded swfs. I know how to make it work with the swfs embedded on the page but it just does not work with movies loaded in the container which is embedded in the html.

If I have explained that crappy I am sorry, feel free to ask questions I am available all tomorrow up until around 4pm.

Thanks in advance and I look forward to chatting away to you!

Hello Oldnewbie,

Thanks a lot for your reply!

You can access the html file via this link
you can download the container which is called addToCarttest.fla here ;
and you can download the external swf here;

Those files are not from the project I am working on now but I have created them so they replicate the features etc.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Best Wishes,
Arran North
