Flash Global Functions in Director

[Fraser Campbell]

Not too sure how useful this, but I am in the middle of doing a project 
whereby I am saving the XML from a Flash movie in a text file via 
Director. anyway, whilst playing with this I have found that you can get 
access to some of Flash's useful global functions like escape and 
unescape (and some not so useful ones such as isNaN) from Director.

gFlashGlobal.getVariable("_global",FALSE)
put gFlashGLobal.escape("<test>")
-- "%3Ctest%3E"
Like I said, not sure how useful or widely known this is, but handy for 
URLEncoding strings

cheers
