Hey Friends, I have a function that returns an object full of data pulled when an XML file gets parsed. But I also need to use an array object with additional data. That array also gets built in the same function. Is there a way to return both?

I am trying to get both the “Obj” and “SlideTime[idx]” data to use as globals.

```auto
function parseXML(objData:XML):Object
{
    var obj:Object = new Object();

    sessionID = "1";

    obj.cday = objData.session.(attribute('id') == sessionID).cday;
    obj.cdate = objData.session.(attribute('id') == sessionID).cdate;

    for (var idx:uint=0, end:uint=slideTotal; idx<end; idx++)
    {
        slideTime[idx] = objData.session.(attribute('id') == sessionID).slides.img.(attribute('id') == idx).text();
    }

    return obj;
}

```
