R – the best way to handle refreshing a localConnection between AS3 and AS2 swfs using SWFBridge? (load, unload, load again)

I have an AS2 swf that is hosted by an AS3 swf and they connect using SWFBridge. During the course of things i need to unload the AS2 swf and reload it. Therefore I assume I need to re-establish the SWFBridge connection. But when I try to reopen the connection it doesnt appear to work. Heres what I have –

AS3 Code:

var myBridge:SWFBridgeAS3;
function setUpBridge() :void {
   myBridge = new SWFBridgeAS3("connectionID", this);
   myBridge.addEventListener(Event.CONNECT, handleConnect);
}
setUpBridge(); // the first time
loadAS2SWF(); // loads the As2 swf using Loader class

… sometime later

loader.unload(); // unload the AS2 swf
myBridge.close();
setUpBridge();
loadAS2SWF();

Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? Everything works fine for the first load of the AS2 swf but the connection is not being established in subsequent loads….

… incidentally – it would appear that when reconnecting, the communication works ok from the host to the client but no calls to functions from clien to host swf are received?? confusing!

Thanks

————————————- UPDATE ——————————————-

I found that when I had 2 browser windows open SWFBridge would not work. It seems there is an issue with connections using the same ID. For a discussion of this and some workarounds search for 'multiple-connection issue' on Grant Skinner's blog

Hope this helps.
