Hi people, Finally I've got the answer to my question: It seems that there is not a feasible way to achieve that Flash Player (Netscape Plug-in) calls into its wrapper using the XML pattern that uses its "brother" (ActiveX Flash Player). Thus, the solution is to interpret the chunk of javascript code in the best way that is suitable for your (my) needs.
Bellow, for your convenience, there is the answer I got from one of the player architecs. Thanks a lot to Matt, Gary and all the people that replied to this topic. --- For the Netscape plug-in, I think the easiest thing for him to do is just to parse the JS coming from the Player. You don't need a full _JavaScript interpreter to do it. The _JavaScript code generated always follows the same basic pattern. A parser to transform it into XML or any other data structures would probably only be a few hundred lines. --- --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "drome.dario" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi guys, > I have seen that ActiveX version of Flash Player issues an event > (FlashCall) that describes using xml the function call that the > programmer has called with ExternalInterface.call method. > That xml has the form : <invoke > name="thenameofthefunction"><arguments>...</arguments></invoke> > However, regarding the NPPlugin version, when you make > a "ExternalInterface.call" flash always ask to its container > to "evaluate" a chunk of javascript code. > Also, both flash player versions (ActiveX and NPPlugin) provide > the "CallFunction" method that allows you to pass, in a single > parameter, an xml (in the same form as the one from "FlashCall" > event) describing the actionscript function (and its arguments) to be > called. > > I would need to use the "xml flavor" in both directions (flash to > container and container to flash) independently of the version of > Plash Player being used (ActiveX or NPPlugin).
