communication with Flash movie, how?

[Jeff]

hi

asp.net 2.0
actionscript 3.0, Flash CS4 Pro

In my webproject I want to embed a flash movie. That flash movie is the menu
system of the website. Based on different menu items selected I want the
flashmovie to move to different frames inside the flash movie....

So if the user loads Default.aspx then show frame 1 of the flashmovie... if
user loads page Default2.aspx then show frame 10 in the flash movie..

I'm gonna put this flashmovie in the masterpage. I reckon I have to have
some code in the masterpage, controlling what frame to show in the
flashmovie, not sure how to do it.....

any suggestions?

AFIK ASP.NET does not support controlling a swf file format in the manner
you mention. You should get into an Adobe newsgroup and ask about this as
there are some .NET Developers there who have had to develop the
work-arounds.

you communicate to flash via javascript or the object parameters. as
navigating to a new page will reload the flash file, you can just use
the object parameters to set the frame.

note: the master page is just a control on the main page and is
regenerated on each navigation.
