I'd recommand making a handler in your Director movie that does the
navigation and variable setting for you. So the Flash would be:
on (release) {
getURL ( "lingo: NavigateFromFlash" )
}
...and in your Director file:
on NavigateFromFlash
globalVar = whatever
go "questions"
END NavigateFromFlash
You should be able to pass params to the handlers you call that way
too, letting you use the Flash events to pass stuff to Director that
you want stuffed into the global var.
Hope this helps!
