hi guille,
Just to double-check, are you calling initApp()?
For instance:
<mx:Application ... creationComplete="initApp()" >
If that is ok, confirm which html "wrapper" is being called. (e.g. Flex
Builder uses separate wrappers for debug and non-debug).
Also, for increased visibility into what is happening at runtime you can add
a checkpoint on the initApp() method. Then you can step through the
processing and possibly see in the Variables panel the contents of
Application.application.parameters. Or add a trace() in the method to
confirm that it is at least executing.
Please post back whether or not any of this helps.
hth,

Hi G!
Code seems to be fine, but it ain't seem to be working. I wrote the
following code withing Flex:
// call on creation complete
private function initApp():void{
myExternalUrl = Application.application.parameters.theUrl;
requestText.text = myExternalUrl;
}
and then, within the <object> tag in the HTML:
<param name="theUrl" value="this is the goddam dynamic url">
I open the HTML witht eh Flex app, but the textbox wont show anything.
Any Suggestions?
Thanks!
