Get Variables through flash name

That syntax should work as you have it. in the main timeline, add a trace(url); and see what happens.

I've used that querystring type syntax for ages.

What version of flash are you exporting to?

That trace wont work sorry, as you would need the flash in a browser, where the trace command would do nothing. Add a dynamic text box on the main timeline, with the variable name set as url, then pass the url into the flash as you have done. I've just tried this and it works well.

I use 5 version.

When I insert trace(url); , I don't get any results,  window "Output" was blank. It's because I've ran script at the Macromedia Flash and can't to declare this var "url".

I've made html file and at once set my test variables info (just textfield) this value url: _root.info=url, and it's field was blank again. :/

In the html file I written file.swf?url=testname

Ok,

I did it, but not successfully :/

But I note, what it work at the NN and don't work at the IE!!!

make sure you pass the "url=test" into the embed tag (for NN) and the param tag (for IE).
