Hi Ross,
when you create your variables, you forgot to set the identifier,
public , private etc.
Because else it scopes it default to , if i'm not mistaken.
So now change that to (and its good practice to use an underscore for
member variables);
private var _mainBrowser: BasicBrowserWindow; (not htmlLoader)
Also change the mainBrowser everywhere to _mainBrowser, now also do
the same trick for the htmlLoader.
(set it to private and rename to_htmLoader).
That should fix it.
Hope this helps you on your way,
Sid

This is probably too simple of a question to ask here, but I'm
trying to
get my head around this AS3 OOP thing. I'm playing with a simple AIR
(built in Flash) web browser and I've hit a snag right off the bat. I
have a document class that calls a class to build the HTMLLoader
window.
If I comment out the code in the onGoEvent function it works fine.
When
I uncomment the code and compile, I get a " 1061: Call to a possibly
undefined method urlToLoad through a reference with static type" I
know
urlToLoad is there, I use it to load the default page, but for some
reason it gets lost along the way... With my limited knowledge of AS3
and OOP I just can't find the problem. Thanks for any advice and
help.
urlInput = the text entry field a user would typ the URL address to a
web page.
PS. I've removed some of the code like the "import" statements to keep
the email as small as possible.
DOCUMENT CLASS
package {
public class MyBrowser extends MovieClip {
var mainBrowserWindow:HTMLLoader;
public function MyBrowser()
{
mainBrowserWindow = new
BasicBrowserWindow(this,10,45,stage.stageHeight -
100,900,"http://www.yahoo.com";);
//goButton
goButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onGoEvent);
}
public function onGoEvent(e:MouseEvent):void
{
mainBrowserWindow.urlToLoad( urlInput.text );
}
}
}
BasicBrowserWindow CLASS
package {
public class BasicBrowserWindow extends HTMLLoader {
var htmlLoader:HTMLLoader = new HTMLLoader();
public function BasicBrowserWindow(mC:MovieClip,
xPos:int,
yPos:int,
browserH:int,
browserW:int,
defaultURL:String)
{
htmlLoader.x = xPos;
htmlLoader.y = yPos;
htmlLoader.width = browserW;
htmlLoader.height = browserH;
mC.addChild(htmlLoader);
urlToLoad(defaultURL);
}
public function urlToLoad(uTL:String):void
{
htmlLoader.load(new URLRequest( uTL ));
}
}
}
