I am trying to fetch values from HTML -embed tag into Actioscript (Flash CS4). And sending the value to Javascript using ExternalInterface.call
method. But its not working on all browsers. I am getting Security Sandbox Violation error. Following is the HTML in which embed tag and javascript is
included. Thank you.
