Hello Amy,
How could I "monkey patch" in Flex that I could use "self" in the brackets?
This is all I could think of but I don't know how I could use that in
the Flex framework....
UIComponent.prototype.self=function():UIComponent
{
return this;
}
If the solution is more trouble than what it's worth...them I'm just
getting lazy. :)
