Change playback of flash object via html or javascript

Question

is it possible to change the playback speed of a flash object without having to recompile the flash object, ie through the html attributes or javascript?

thanks in advance

Answer 1

No, but you can call a function within your SWF file from JavaScript ( ExternalInterface. addCallback ) that changes your animation's FPS... However, you would need to create the function in your flash file and recompile it once.

You could also create a loader SWF that has this functionality, and load your old flash movie from it.
