Handles flashvar serialization Converting complex objects into a simple, clear string that can be appended to the swf as a query: myMovie.swf?flashvars=foo. Note this needs to work with the SWF, which must know what variables to expect. Therefore this is something of an "internal" class - unless you know how to modify or create SWFs.
JSON could be done, but Deft does not yet have a JSON parser, and quotes are very problematic since Flash cannot use eval(); JSON parsing was successful when it was fully escaped, but that made it very large anyway. flashvar serialization at most is 200% larger than JSON.
See the dojox/embed/flashVars reference documentation for more information.
