Thanks so much man!!! You made my (and my company's) day! So instead of debugging my application over the weekend, I can spend it BBQing with my GF!

Thanks again!!

Adam Langviser is right, his trick works perfectly. for me at least. but thank you steve for having documented everything and gave samples and scripts…

I have the same problem as Adam… whenever I refresh the page or come back to it, the javascript errors have returned, and the script no longer functions. Thoughts?

I don't understand why you add all that code to your page, when you might as well just write window["yourmoviename"] = document.getElementById("yourmoviename"); It works for me that's for sure.

Adam – sometimes IE's caching will kill your bidirectional communications with Flash – if your application is small enough you could try using the noCache() option to force the SWF to download every time.
