I found a useful segment intersection algorithm in the book

The algorithm is quite understandable and efficient. It does use
binary trees, so I have to code a binary tree class before I can
implement the algorithm.
Haven't read it, but this book has a good reputation. If memory serves,
it's a sweep line algorithm which uses a priority queue -- you can get
an AS 2 version from Arul's blog --

good luck and enjoy the book!
