Re: FLASH: Getting Variables from JavaScript to Flash

[2Nerotik]

Ok, I got it working so that I can not put the variables into Flash,

took at look a Colin Moocks site and figured it out mostly.


Problem now is that I'm getting an error "Cannot use parentheses when

calling a sub."


Does anybody know what the heck that means ?


This is the script so far:


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript">

<!--

//  Catch FS Commands in IE, and pass them to the corresponding JavaScript 

function.


Sub FlashCount_FSCommand(ByVal command, ByVal args)

     call FlashCount_DoFSCommand(command, args)

end sub


//-->

</SCRIPT>


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

<!--

function FlashCount_DoFSCommand(command, args)

{

         if ( command == "call_alert" )

         {

           parent.window.document.FlashCount.SetVariable('Day', dday);

           parent.window.document.FlashCount.SetVariable('Hour', dhour);

           parent.window.document.FlashCount.SetVariable('Min', dmin);

           parent.window.document.FlashCount.SetVariable('Sec', dsec);

         }

}


//-->

</SCRIPT>


I'd also post the JavaScript but it's pretty big... would the error I'm getting

be caused by the JavaScript ?
