Hi all. I want to put an event listener onto an item on the stage through a custom class, although I just can't get the linkage right!

Let's say I have a button, "redbutton" on the stage, and a custom class, blah.as, which includes...

Code:

stage.redbutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, redfunction);
function redfunction(event:MouseEvent):void{
trace("wow");
}

This doesn't link up. I am aware that I shouldn't be using the stage at all, I'm just trying to experiment to find out how linkage correctly works. Equally so, I'd like to work out how to set an EventListener onto a different custom class, let's say at redbutton.as.

Thanks in advance.
