Hi all,

I am really wanting to get started in silverlight, and I have a project that I want to use it on.  However; this project currently has a whole bunch of SWF movie files that I am currently controlling using the Flash JScript API.  I want to add some new features, and eventually move all the video content into something more appropriate to Silverlight, but in the short term that is not an option.

Is there a way to embed non-silverlight objects (In this case the SWF files) and interact with them like I would if it were just on a regular HTML page?

Thanks in advance

Lance

I don't know how to control SWF files but in silverlight you can interact with and execute javascript code. If you are able to control your flash movies from javascript there is a way for you to control them from silverlight.

Try call on javascript functions which in turn talks to the JScript API, (or the newer ExternalInterface/External API in flash 8). to call a javascript function from Silverlight use something like:

HtmlPage.Window.Invoke("functionname","parameter");

If you like the flashmovie appear "inside" the Silverlight movie, look for the Windowless:true and the Background:Transparent parameters

That's exactly what I needed, thanks!
