Hi,

I created a ChatLoader.swf that first imports Connect(); for the connect functions and then imports Avatars(); for the avatar functions.

the Avatars.as has several functions that need to transmit variables to Connect.as so that it sends the variables across to other people. How can i get Avatar.as to acces the Connect functions?

I can’t import Connect.as into Avatar.as since it’ll create 2 connections with the server.

ChatLoader.swf itself has

```auto
private var connect:Connect= new Connect();

```

and Connect.as has

```auto
	public function write(str:String):void
	{
		socket.writeUTFBytes(str);
		socket.flush();
	}

```

so that i can write:

```auto
connect.write();

```

from the ChatLoader.as if i want to send variables to the connect functions. I’d like to do the same with the avatar functions but it doesn’t seem to work.
