How to call jQuery function from Flash

I have a problem only with IE: if I try to invoke a JS function from Flash using ExternalInterface I cannot get results if Flash is embedded inside a JQuery dialog. When I make the same thing from a normal HTML page it runs.

How can I invoke ExternalInterface.call to run a function even if flash is inside a dialog?

Solution

  • In IE the Flash embed OBJECT tag should have an id, otherwise ExternalInterface won't work.

    I'm not sure though how you can add an id to Flash embed tag inside the UI dialog.
