flash data integration : Interacting with flash via a loaded text?

Here's my problem:

I have a project with loads of text ergo I am loading text from external files
with html formating. Now I have to insert videos linked to the text file too
(as in "dolor ipsum ... press here to view video"). All I need is a code that
lets my text interact somehow with the movie.

Can I do it somehow through Javascript/Coldfusion/anything or do I have to
scrap my text and make things manually ?

If by "text interact somehow with the movie" perhaps you need to look at AS
function and call an Actionscript function that loads the external video.

Example there shows how to work it with external sound.
