When you use addEventListener functions, is there any way to add parameters to the function that is called? for example:

```auto

some_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, onEnterFrame);
 
function onEnterFrame(e:Event):void {
    // some code...
}

```

is there any way to add parameters to the function “onEnterFrame” other than the event parameter? if so, how do you handle this? could you provide an example? Thx!
