    First off, I am not a Mac person. I have a problem specifically with the Safari Beta release. My page works fine on Windows browsers and even on the Mac Firefox browser, but I just can't figure out what the issue is with Safari. The error message I receive is "Value undefined (result of expression thisMovie("testMAC").setText) is not object.". I created a test page and test flash to try and figure it out, below is the code to both.

    Any ideas would be great, thanks in advance.

    Flash
    This test SWF only has a label on the stage, and a function defined to set the label.
    stop();
    import flash.external.*;
    var instance6:Object = null;
    var method6:Function = setText;
    var wasSuccess6:Boolean = ExternalInterface.addCallback("setText", instance6, method6);
    function setText(lb:String) {
    lbtest.text = lb;
    }
