Didier,

With this code on a button in Flash 4:

On (Release)
Get URL ("testparampass.html?this=1&that=2")
End On

and this code in the body section of testparampass.html:

<body>
<script language="javascript">
document.writeln(location.href + "<br>");
document.writeln(location.search + "<br>");
document.writeln(location.search.substring(1) + "<br>");
</script>
</body>

I get this output in MSIE 5.0 (WinNT, tested locally in PWS):

http://ntlocal/iTechnica/testparampass.html?this=1&that=2
?this=1&that=2
this=1&that=2

So I think it does work. Not sure what you're doing differently...

Regards,
Helen
