FlashPlayer

Description

A control that contains a Flash Player, which can load and play Flash movies stored in SWF files.

The ScriptUI FlashPlayer element runs the Flash application within an Adobe application. The Flash application runs ActionScript, a different implementation of JavaScript from the ExtendScript version of JavaScript that Adobe applications run. A control object of this type contains functions that allow your script to load SWF files, control movie playback, and communicate with the ActionScript environment.
