[jmsl] JMSL and Flash

[jmsl at music.columbia.edu]

Hi Jen

I don't know much about JavaScript controlling Flash, but here's an 
example of JavaScript sending values to Java.
http://www.didkovsky.com/JavaMusicSystems/applets/JavaScriptApplet.html
Study the HTML source of the page itself. The Applet itself is nothing 
special; it just has a public method which JavaScript calls with
<a href="javascript:document.MyApplet.setValue('Bob');">"Bob"</a>

Important, the applet tag needs
mayscript="mayscript"

Thanks,
Nick Didkovsky
