Have a scoping issue of some kind within a Class itself, seems strange.
Flash 9 AS2 SWF.

I have a class that handles some XML-RPC calls. Works great from the _root
proper, but fails when i call it from within a function... (without getting
into all the little specifics of the code, below is enough I think to
explain it)...

some Conduit Class code:

function Conduit()
   {
       owner = this;
       mx.events.EventDispatcher.initialize( owner );
       replyXML = new XML();
       send_lv = new LoadVars();
   };
...
// This won't get called by interval timeline code below in this email
private function doGetAuto( sSubstring:String, sZipcode:String, sMax:String
):Void
   {
       trace( "> doGetAuto" );
       replyXML = new XML();
       replyXML.ignoreWhite = true;
       replyXML.onLoad = Delegate.create( owner, autoResponse );

       send_lv = new LoadVars();
       send_lv.q = sSubstring;
       send_lv.zip = sZipcode;
       send_lv.max = sMax;
       send_lv.sendAndLoad( sAutoCompleteURL, replyXML, "GET" );
   };
   private function autoResponse( success:Boolean ):Void
   {
       if( success )
       {
           dispatchEvent( {target:owner, type:"autoCompleteResponse",
data:replyXML} );
       } else
       {
           dispatchEvent( {target:owner, type:"genericError" } );
       }
   };

   public function getAutoCompleteMatches( sSubstring:String,
sZipcode:String, sMax:String ):Void
   {
       trace( "getAutoCompleteMatches" );
       doGetAuto( sSubstring, sZipcode, sMax );
   };
...

now an example of some implementing timeline code:

// Works, see the "> doGetAuto" traced
var myConduit:Conduit = new Conduit();
myConduit.getAutoCompleteMatches( "iron", "01701", "6" );

// Doesn't work, stops at the first trace within the class (
"getAutoCompleteMatches" ) (in place of code above)
var myConduit:Conduit = new Conduit();
function createFirst():Void
{
   login_dialogBox_mc.entry_txt.onChanged = entryChange;
};
function entryChange():Void
{
  clearTimeout( nAutoTimer );
  nAutoTimer = setTimeout( myConduit.getAutoCompleteMatches, 500,
login_dialogBox_mc.entry_txt.text, user.zipcode, "6" );
}
