asfunction in mx:html possible?

Question

I have an AIR Application which uses the mx:HTML tag to load a webpage hosted by me.

In my webpage, I want to invoke a function in the containing AIR application via javascript?

Is this possible?

eg:

in my AIR application:

public function goBack():void{
  trace('invoked from javascript!');
}   

<mx:HTML id="coreHtml" width="100%" height="100%" backgroundAlpha="0" location="http://mydomain.com/myhtmlpage.html" />

Then in myhtmlpage.html

function callActionscript(){
 asfunction.goBack();
}

With this setup I get the following error:

ReferenceError: Can't find variable: goBack

If i change my function to:

function callActionscript(){
 asfunction.parent.goBack();
}

I get the following error:

TypeError: Value undefined does not allow function calls.

Update:

If I change the function to:

function callActionscript(){
 asfunction.goBack;
}

I get the following error:

ReferenceError: Can't find variable: goBack

Now if I put a hyperlink on in myhtmlpage.html:

<a href="asfunction:goBack">test</a>

I get the following error:

*Error: SECURITY_ERR: DOM Exception 18*
