Hey, I got a really noob question, I’m a php developer coming to flash, I got drawn here by amfphp. In an fla file how would I connect the .fla file to an external .as file.

One more question. If I have a .fla file that has actionscript embedded in it, if I take the actionscript out of the file, and put in in an external .as file, will the program still work?
