Yes, that works, but the keyword is _global not global. Also, the true gurus
will advise you to define a namespace within _global to avoid conflicts. So,
they want you to create an object within global, like
_global.myNamespace=new Object();
_global.myNamespace.varName="hello";
Then from within your function you can read or write
_global.myNamespace.varName.
I'm not sure what would happen if you try to read/write myNamespace.varName
without referencing _global explicitly. You'd think that would work, but I'd
test that assumption before I'd trust it.
