Ideas concerning the use of magnetooptic materials to control spatial solitons are introduced. It is shown that control of spatial solitons can be achieved through the use of TM modes TE-TM interactions. Potential functions can be defined through a Lagrangian analysis and optimisation is possible to facilitate energy transfer between TE and TM waves.
