If you want to communicate between your SWFs with different languages, you’ll need to use LocalConnection, but that will require changing your course SWFs. You may simply need to stay in AS2 for this system.

E4X is confusing, and about as readable is firstChild.firstChild… I’ll stick to old XML. It’s faster than E4X anyway. Agree with everything else, though. I started in AS2, so ran into the porting issues. Still, AS2 was faster to develop in, but not debug.
