I have a flex application with an iframe layered on top.

I want to make a call from the iframe to flex with javascript.

So far i have tried this:

This is the Object containing the swf embed in the ROOT document

    <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
        id="IPRS_Dispatcher" width="1400" height="1000"
        codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/swflash.cab">
        <param name="movie" value="DispatcherMain.swf" />
        <param name="quality" value="high" />
        <!-- <param name="bgcolor" value="${bgcolor}" /> -->
        <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
        <param name='flashVars' value='strLang=english&strIPRSSrvHost=&strGPSSrvHost=192.168.1.130&strGPSSrvSoapPort=8081&strGPSSrvFwdPort=26000&strLoginMode=simple&strSOSSrvHost=192.168.1.80&strSOSSrvSoapPort=8082&strSOSSrvFwdPort=26001&strSOSLoginMode=simple&strUserSIP=&strUserPswd=&nDelayForMapReadySecs=10&nGPSUpdatesRateSecs=120&nGPSSubscriptionsIntervalMinutes=10&nLat=35.0&nLng=32.5&nZoomLevel=5&strClientServiceVersion=2.1.36.19&nPathDotsSize=1&nPathWidth=5&bHideAnnounce=false&bHideEmergencyPan=true&strMapMarkerLabelMode=name&key=ABQIAAAAYbXZyR09wFj6QsiYucHpGxQEO34WZEWuIFq1A7yobGXPE-K5exQV9ZYR6NIkF8LCR8wsYvlhOIYsfA' />
        <embed id="IPRS_Dispatcher2" src="DispatcherMain.swf"
            flashVars='strLang=english&strIPRSSrvHost=&strGPSSrvHost=192.168.1.130&strGPSSrvSoapPort=8081&strGPSSrvFwdPort=26000&strLoginMode=simple&strSOSSrvHost=192.168.1.80&strSOSSrvSoapPort=8082&strSOSSrvFwdPort=26001&strSOSLoginMode=simple&strUserSIP=&strUserPswd=&nDelayForMapReadySecs=10&nGPSUpdatesRateSecs=120&nGPSSubscriptionsIntervalMinutes=10&nLat=35.0&nLng=32.5&nZoomLevel=5&strClientServiceVersion=2.1.36.19&nPathDotsSize=1&nPathWidth=5&bHideAnnounce=false&bHideEmergencyPan=true&strMapMarkerLabelMode=name&key=ABQIAAAAYbXZyR09wFj6QsiYucHpGxQEO34WZEWuIFq1A7yobGXPE-K5exQV9ZYR6NIkF8LCR8wsYvlhOIYsfA' 
            width="1400" height="1000" name="IPRS_Dispatcher" align="middle"
            play="true"
            loop="false"
            quality="high"
            allowScriptAccess="sameDomain"
            type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
            pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer"> <!-- bgcolor="${bgcolor}" -->
        </embed>
</object>

I have added addcallback for the function i want to expose

ExternalInterface.addCallback("sendToFlash", callFromJavaScript);

FYI

  public function callFromJavaScript(str):void
  {
  LogAddItem( 30, str);
  }

In my IFRAME i have added the function

function callToFlash(str) 
{
  var swf = parent.top.$("#IPRS_Dispatcher");
  var bool = swf.sendToFlash(str);
}

Now getting error in chrome - Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'sendToFlash'

UPDATE 25/06/2012 - output from console.log(swf)
