Re: FLASH: Object/Embed Syntax For passing values?

[Jason Nugent]

	Hi Kelly,


	You should be able to do the same thing with IE - just do a 

second document.write() where you have write the param statement.


  <SCRIPT language="JavaScript"><!--


  var param = eval('<PARAM NAME="' + movieName + '" VALUE="' + myVar + '">');

   document.write(param);


  // -->

 </SCRIPT>


	Which should do two substitutions, one for the name (the variable 

movieName will be substituted), and then again with myVar for the VALUE 

attribute.  IE recognizes the language of "JavaScript" (it is basically 

equivalent to JScript, IE's scripting language).  Stick with JavaScript, 

though, since 1.3 is now darn close to the ECMA specification.


	hth,


	Jason
