Getting a reference to a flash form in Javascript

It's trying not to have adequate access to the client side movie produced by a flash form. For example, I Have a large number of panels in an accordian pane and I want to hide or unhide them based on user preferences. I also want to resize the form movie as the panels are "hidden" to make better use of the visible area of the screen. I wanted to be able to change the "height" and "width" parameters of the movie.

The problem is, that while the "NOSCRIPT" block has an ID parameter to it, the "document.write" block that outputs the object tag does not have and ID parameter attached to it (in spite of my putting ID="blah" in the CFFORM tag). That seems like a bug. Anyway, I went about trying to find another way to access the properties of the embeded movie. I came up with the following:

div class="code">div class="code">function resizeAp(iNx) {
debug.innerText = "";
document.body.children[iNx].attributes.id.value = "mainAp";
for(each in mainAp) {
if(each != "outerHTML" && each != "innerHTML" && each != "text")
debug.innerHTML = debug.innerHTML + each + ' IS ' + mainAp[each] + " <br/>";
}
}
