Hi, I'm quite new to Flex and was wondering if it's possible to use Meta Tags to declare the custom Event that is to be fired from the 'popup' component.
And then assign that Custom Event to the function handler in the parent MXML or AS file? I guess this is the same as Geoff and Vaibhav's suggestion? Why do you guys suggest that the parent dispatches the event. Doesn't that cause compoenent coupling which I understand to be a bad thing?... Thanks - as I say, I'm new to this stuff so am curious to the thoughts of those in the know...
