I get it. I was asking more as a way to simply cleanout the code when it gets too long but your way makes it dynamic. Great!
Thanks. I'll look into it. -David ________________________________ From: Fotis Chatzinikos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, November 30, 2008 8:29:23 AM Subject: Re: [flexcoders] sailorsea21 - is there an "include" command in Flex that acts likes PHP include? Hi, I think that you do not understand exactly how to use mxml and custom components.. . You do not "include" mxml (as you would do in php, its more like java or another object oriented language... You make a new 'class' (component in our case, and then use): A quick pseudocode example: File MyComponent. mxml: <canvas> <script> [Bindable] public var thetitle:String = "" ; </script> <label text="{thetitle}"/> </Canvas> And then in main application to use it and set its title label: <application> ...other staff... <some container or whatever really> <MyNamespace: MyComponent thetitle="Hello World"/> ... Note: you need to register MyNamespace with a line similar to: <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe. com/2006/ mxml" xmlns:MyNamespace="com.myself.componen ts.*" Hope it helps... Read some tutorials... There are lots available :-) Fotis On Sun, Nov 30, 2008 at 3:09 PM, - - <sailorsea21@ yahoo.com> wrote: Hi Ben, but what if I'd like to include some MXML ? Is it possible?

So something like <mx:script source="mycode. as" /> The included code wouldn't be a class or anything, just a series of methods and variables (like you'd want from an include) ben sailorsea21 wrote: > > Hi everyone, I would like to clean up my main mxml file since it's > getting farely big.
