[Flashjs] From Flash to Javascript...

I recently had the same problem. Interestingly it was with a function also
called updateStatus, although other functions worked OK. I'm thinking it's
possible that that name is reserved in some way - you could try renaming the
function.

I actually solved the problem by using Flash 8's ExternalInterface object so
if you don't mind Flash Player 8 as a requirement then that's a good option.
If you do go for that option please note that you will need to include a
library file that comes with flash (I cant remember the name of it offhand).
