Take a look at the fscommand function under Help.
Here is an example:
"The following example applies fscommand() to a button in
Flash for the purpose of opening a JavaScript message box in an
HTML page. The message itself is sent to JavaScript as the
fscommand parameter.
You must add a function to the web page that contains the SWF
file. This function, myDocument_DoFSCommand(), waits for an
fscommand() call. When fscommand() is triggered in Flash (for
example, when a user clicks the button), the command and parameter
strings are passed to the myDocument_DoFSCommand()function. You can
use the passed strings in your JavaScript or VBScript code in any
way you like. In this example, the function contains a conditional
if statement that checks to see if the command string is
"messagebox". If it is, a JavaScript alert box displays the
contents of the fscommand() function's parameters string.
function myDocument_DoFSCommand(command, args) {
if (command == "messagebox") {
alert(args);
In the Flash document, add fscommand() to a button:
fscommand("messagebox", "This is a message box called from
within Flash.")
You can use expressions for the parameters of the fscommand()
function, as shown in the following example:
fscommand("messagebox", "Hello, " + name + ", welcome to our
website!")
To test the SWF file, select File > Publish Preview >
HTML. If you publish your SWF file using the Flash with FSCommand
template (in the Publish Settings dialog box, select the HTML tag),
Flash inserts the myDocument_DoFSCommand() function automatically.
The SWF file's NAME and ID attributes will be the filename. For
example, for the file myDocument.fla, the attributes would be set
to myDocument."
