I might have a partial solution for you:
I believe Flash will automatically set variables for you if you attach them in a GET URL request.
So, if you had a URL like this: file://PATH_TO_MOVIE.swf?myVar=x
When the flash movie is launched it should automatically set myVar to x


Now, the problem is that will only work when loading the movie, so if you have to set variables in the middle of the movie, it will be harder.

As for receiving fscommands, I dont really know. With actionscript, you can write cookies which you could intercept with webkit or write to a temporary file and watch it for changes.

Hope that helps

The issue here is that the WebView (as set up in this) doesn't provide for Flash interactivity. I.e., receiving fscommand calls from the Flash file, nor sending setVariable messages to Flash.

Loading the Flash file is no issue... it's getting at the 'swliveconnect' functionality that's giving me a headache. :)
