Your code came in without returns, but i'll make a wild guess and say
that using the alternate form of setInterval will work for you-
setInterval(object_containing_function,"function_name_as_string",
milliseconds [, params])
-where you pass in the function as a parent object, string pair; so
if you wanted to call a function called test() on the root, you would
call
setInterval(_root,"test", 100)

Hi All - I am new to AS2 and OOP at large, but getting there (sort-
of).
Can anyone please advise as to why, in the following code, the
trace statement in the function tweenColors in returning 'undefined' ?
Why can't the tweenColors function (which is called with
setInterval from another function) see the _oTransform object ?
Also, feel free to comment if you can see anything I am doing wrong
generally speaking from an AS2 point of view
(as I said, I'm new to this and my head is still swimming).
