Dynamic javascript parameter

[niller2000]

Hey, is there anyone who could help me with a difficult issue ( for me ).

I have a arrow as a graphic symbol, and i want to make it move up and down on the Y-axies. Unfortuantly i get the parameter that changes the value, from an dynamic Javascript query. Something like this:

var mCounter = "14";

It changes every time the user changes the value in a form, but not via an refresh on the htmlpage.

My question is:
- How can i take a dynamic value from a javascript into my .FLA

My best regards

call this function when the button in the html-file is pressed:

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
  function setVars(){
    window.document.movie.SetVariable('someVar',mCounter); 
    window.document.getElementById('movie').SetVariable('someVar',mCounter);
  }
-->
</script>

then put something like this in the swf:

// the coming 3 lines of code define the value for someVar in case the user hasn't inserted anything
if (_root.someVar == undefined){
  _root.someVar = 14;
}
// the following line of code makes the object move on the Y-axis
someClip._y += _root.someVar;
