They look like fun and I'm looking forward to it. Just "getting acquainted" with them now before I jump in bed with them lol. I did the dispatchEvent + getter dance with three similar problems. One forced me to go 2 classes down and I couldn't figure how to bubble through it, so it became cumbersome. Then I was trying to figure out how to use them in my (now) infinitely nested drop-down menu so that I could control when the whole branch-upon-branch-upon-branch structure should disappear onRollOut from *everything* but *not* to the next branch or previous one, etc. What a freaking mess that would be with dispatchEvent + getter! Not even the quadrille could compare lol. Googled for bubbling events and violá! as3-signals to the rescue ;) John _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
