Pass ColdFusion variable to Flash

Hello all, I'm a flash newbie and I have a quick question. I have some code that I need to pass a CF variable to flash. Please forgive my mix of CF logic to flash. Essentially, there is a line in the action script that is public static const POST_URL:String    = 'http://www.site.com/x/index.cfm'; I think we would need to do something like this: public static const POST_URL:String    = ' http://www.site.com/x/index.cfm?id=VARIABLE_NAME'; Thanks in advance, Mallory Woods

Use the query sting of the swf path in the embed/object code. For exaple here is a snippet <object width="100" height="100"> <param name="movie" value="myflashmovie.swf?fname=Mallory&lname=Woods"> <embed src=" myflashmovie.swf?fname=Mallory&lname=Woods" width="100" height="100"/> </object> Those name/pair values get automatically imported into the flash player.
