Dynamic varibles

Hi All,

I`m working on a site with a xml menu. When clicking on a menu point in the nav. this is part of the script which is executed:

function executeAction(arg){
_level.play();
display = arg;
_global.select=<arg> OR A VARIABLE depending on the arg;
}

then in the main movie (the nav is external) I have a script that checks the variable and according to which one, it should go a certain frame or scene.

if(_global.select==<arg> OR VARIABLE){
nextFrame();
// or gotoAndPlay(); //or whatever
}else{
stop();
}

Naturally this does not work… any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
m.
