Calling JavaScript from ActionScript

[NitinSawant]

Hello,
I'm beginner to actionscript, I've defined following function in script tag of page

<script type="text/javascript">
function showMessage(){
        alert("javascript says: Hello ActionScript");
}
</script>

i want to call it from actionscript,

what i've already wrote is:

import flash.external.ExternalInterface;

on (press) {
	//mx.controls.Alert.show("Hello, world!");
	ExternalInterface.call("showMessage()");
}

neither it shows the alert, nor calls the showMessage function,

Don't you mean ExternalInterfa ce.call("showMe ssage") instead of ExternalInterfa ce.call("showMe ssage()") ?
