<DIV></DIV>well you are on the right track...
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>the one difference you'll have with getQueryParamValue() is that it returns
an empty string if the value isn't found, so instead of checking for null,
you'll want to check for an empty string.</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>you could modify your code in the flash movies like so:</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>if (vol == null || vol == "") vol = 100;</DIV>
