to be perfectly honest that type of exerience is utterly pointless..
Flash was able to do stuff like this when they first introduced Local Connection and was able to communicate with multiple flash instances across active windows and swf objects inside one page.
It's interesting how people get fascinated by HTML5 and things that have been possible for years and much much simpler btw.

Honestly the multiple browser windows felt a bit pointless. Would have been a better experience within a single window. especially since clicking the black backdrop window totally blots out the others, which you have to manually reopen to get them back in view.

" If only Flash had the same ease of talking to the browser itself it probably still would be with us. Connecting AS with JS always seemed like ductaping. "
Eh? What's difficult about ExternalInterface? And Flash is still with us I believe.. Actually 95% of the web is running and it represents 75% of the websites on the internet, so not sure what you mean by "it would still be with us".
var conJS = ExternalInterface.call("JSfuncti...
if you want to communicate from JS to AS3 add a JS listener
ExternalInterface.addCallback("J... testCallFunction);
function testCallFunction():void{
trace("Called!");
}and you call that function from JS on a flash object in the browser.
Shockingly complicated.
