What relly seems to bug the s-t out of Director is leaving out the "," when
passing variables...
So the getURL "must" look like this:
//one var
getURL("event: someLingoHandler,\"" + var_someFlashVariable + "\"");
//two vars
getURL("event: someLingoHandler,\"" + var_someFlashVariable1 + "\",\"" +
var_someFlashVariable2 + "\"");
Using it right now in DMX/FMX.
