tahnks
now it works...
an other question...
if i modify theevent class to pass a panel
public static const NEW_EVENT:String = "newEvent";
private var currentPanel:Panel;
override public function clone():Event {
return new FlipEvent(type, currentPanel);
}
public function NewEvent(type:String, currentPanel:Panel)
{
super(type);
this.currentPanel = currentPanel;
}
then when i fire the event how my function test can know about the
currentPanel
for example like this..
function test(e:NewEvent) {
trace(e.target.currentPanel);
}
then i would stop the propagation of the event
there are two methods
stopPropagation or stopImmediatePropagation ..how can i use?
thanks again
