Mark,
If the compoent is in memory then there is no way to call this function when
ever it is loaded( expect 1st time)
Now how to resolve this issue, it can be achived by action script
when ever u want this in memory u can use this function
public function onload():void
{
// Thing u want to do,
Alert.show('test')
}
in main application u need to attached the child to parent and then call
this onload function
like
MainForm.addChild(can);
can.onload();
<mx:Canvas id="can" xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; width="912"
height="444" show="Alert.show('test')" >
Let me know if this is still a issue for u
