working on a site today and i am remembering that actionscript commands can be exe-d from html (like in a txt file). searched for it can't find the documentation. any actionscript wizards out there know about this.

or just keywords to look for i've been trying "flash" "control "timeline" "commands" "dynamic textfield"

could you be a bit more specific. you want html to kick off a function in flash? i don't see how that could be possible. you could maybe reload the page when you want the thing to happen and then pass a little variable into flash i.e.
file.swf?functionFlag=1
and then in the flash you could say if functionFlag==1 then blah blah. but that would be a bit messy and impractical

i once read but never implemented actionscript commands in a dynamic textfield. not in html page but in text imported into flash. something like <a href=as:/timeline in a link or something like that. maybe its an fscommand in dynamic textfield.
anyone get me.

basically i want to be able to control the timeline in flash from links in a textfield. that's all very simple. :)
