I was going to ask this long winded question but instead, does anyone know of a good tutorial on external class files? External actionscript files? [COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]Preferably [/FONT][/COLOR]one that makes use of more than one function inside the file. And has a good explanation of private versus public (I thought I understood them somewhat but ran into a couple of instances where I could not use either public or private.)
