haXe Forum > Haxe and SWFOBJECT

  Hi people! I have an SWF made in haxe embed in a html using swfobject, I am trying to pass it a variable called texto with the text "Hello haxe from html!!". I put the variable inside the flashvars block.

  The html code look like this:
  

  <script src="js/swfobject.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
      <script type="text/javascript">
          var flashvars = {
              texto : "Hello Haxe!!! This is a message from JS and HTML";
          };
          var params = {
              menu: "false",
              scale: "noScale",
              allowFullscreen: "true",
              allowScriptAccess: "always",
              bgcolor: "#FFFFFF"
          };
          var attributes = {
              id:"MySample"
          };
          swfobject.embedSWF("MySample.swf", "altContent", "100%", "100%", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf", flashvars, params, attributes);
      </script>

  And this is the haxe code:
  

  class Main 
  {
      
      static function main() 
      {
          var info = Lib.current.loaderInfo.parameters.texto;
          trace (info );
      }
      
  }

  Anyway, I only obtain Main.hx 16: null .

  Anybody can help with something simple like this?

  Regards!

  I think you need current.root.loaderInfo, but haven't tried it, so, take it just as a guess.

  Hi Oleg, thanks for your answer!

  I have tried but it does´t works.

  Any idea?

  Hi, I just tried your example and it worked fro me, except that you had a semicolon after the :
  

  texto : "Hello Haxe!!! This is a message from JS and HTML";

  
  That is not valid JavaScript syntax for object literal, the key-value pairs are delimited by commas, the last key-value pair should not have a delimiter after it. So, remove the semicolon and try it again - should work.

  var so = new SWFObject("mysample.swf","client",750,400,8,"#ffffff");
  so.addVariable("texto", "hello from...");
  so.addParam("AllowScriptAccess","always");
  so.addParam("wmode", "transparent");
  so.write("flashcontent");

  flashcontent is your div id where you want to put your flash content
