Javascript to MUTE audio?

LOL

Way to go, Steve!

Awesome! I appreciate your sharing your expertise with those of us who are less technically astute!

This is super awesome!!! i have been struggling with this for weeks and only now came across this post!

Super Hero - Steve Flowers:  thank you for the solution.  

I'm wondering: do you have the Flash source file?  Also, I'm wondering since it is using Javascript, if it can't be modified to operate as a custom scripted trigger, so that it doesn't relay on a external SWF?  I'm not a javascript writer so I'm somewhat at a loss to take this any further.  We're often doing a build-once/run-twice approach, so having a solution for only flash is limiting.  

Thanks for your (additional) thoughts and help.  

Happy to post the FLA once I find it Since there aren't any JavaScript > Storyline Player commands to modify the volume of the player, this was the only way to accomplish it so far. This uses native ActionScript commands to modify the volume globally. The JavaScript was put in place to round trip between Storyline and Flash. Since the SDK and API for the SL player hasn't been revealed, it wasn't possible to communicate between the two SWF's directly. 

I'd love to see some JavaScript commands to modify states in the player. Things like:

JumpToSlide(ID);

MutePlayer();

Pause();

Play();

These would be super handy. Join me in submitting a feature request:)

A few folks have asked about the source for the SWF. It's a pretty simple file. Attached here.

This is a big request - but any chance we could get the fla in CS5? We aren't upgrading to 5.5 and I can't open the FLA file unfortunately..
