its not showing up ... if i change the component to be an application rather than a separate mxml file included in the main app then it works...
i think it has something to do with how i reference the parent movieclip (i.e. _root). Ive also tried _parent, and this but neither of them help. i know it finds the file to be used for the popup because the background color of my application changes to white (probabaly the color of the popup window). --- In [email protected], Matt Chotin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm confused, is it not compiling, not showing up, or is the window showing > up in a place that's different than you want? > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: achillesflex [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2004 7:21 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [flexcoders] trouble creating popup from within a component > > > > hi all, > > ive got my main application file in the root directory. from wihin a > sub directory i have a separate file that is included in to the main > app as a component. ive done it like this so that all my code is > split into separate modules. > > now from within the component in the sub directory i am trying to > open a pop up window. i cant seem to get it to work as the location > from which it is trying to open is a component/window rather than > within the application... > > any ideas? > > > > > _____ > > Yahoo!
