How do you communicate between flash and java?

Hi,How can you pass parameters between a Flash movie and a Java applet running on the same machine? I would like to do this without opening a new browser window or putting parameters in the url of the browser window that is running the Flash movie.

Flash supports Javascript , check out actions.set the URL like you would the Javascript for making a method call from a webpage.make sure that Scriptable <PARAM> has been set to true.
