Faces expression in Javascript? Flash/Flex and Faces Session Variables

Question

Does anyone know how to add a faces expression in Javascript?
I basically want to pass a Faces Variable to Flash/Flex. The best way to do that would be in Javascript.
I thought it would be fairly easy. Something like:
                    <webuijsf:script binding="#{Page1.script1}" id="script1" >
                        function foo() {
                          var text = #{Page1.textField1.text};
                          alert(text);
                    </webuijsf:script>Or something like that, and hope that the Faces expression will be expanded before sent to the browser. Unfortunately, that's not happening:
SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet Faces Servlet threw exception
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: /Page1.jsp(16,38) #{..} is not allowed in template textWhen ran in the HTTP context of NetBeans.

Have a look at Shared Objects, I think these are the sort of
thing you are after. I think the "Specifying a path" subtopic
should be particularly relevant for sharing the variables/objects
between the two swf files.
