flex air mobile communication with javascript

Question

I have an educational application in which I have three components viz; android communication engine, flex content bridge and flash content. Now I have a task to replace the flash content with HTML content which will communicate with flex bridge via JavaScript. I have been trying this thing for over a week now to a avail no success.
Is it even possible to achieve that in an air mobile project (compiled for android) without any hacks?

Answer 1

As Pieter suggested, this is a great treat for those looking to communicate with Javascript from Flex. But since links can break, let me explain it a bit here:

In Javascript

document.location = '$' + 'Data#As#String';

In Flex

webview.addEventListener( LocationChangeEvent.LOCATION_CHANGING,
handleLocationChanging );

function handleLocationChanging( event:LocationChangeEvent ):void
{
   event.preventDefault();

   //location parameter will have a absolute path of the .html file as a prefix
   var strParameters:Array = (e.location as String).split("$");

   trace(strParameters[1] + "Is the string received from Javascript");
}

I solved my (similar) problem with using Sockets, now I have a java server which can call functions in my air app (for automated testing purposes) I suppose you could solve your problem like this too. If needed I can post a small example
