passing arbitrary parameters from html

I'm having trouble figuring out how to pass an arbitrary string to a basic flash movie (*.swf) as a parameter. In this case I plan to instantiate a number of the same flash movie objects on the html page and they will determine their behavior by inspecting the argument passed from the html instantiation and act accordingly. What is the best way to accomplish this?

Thanks,
Richard Bagdazian

whereever you include the swf name in your html code, you can also include variable names and values eg: test.swf?var1=test
