If you have:
Public class Page
{
private var myTextArea:TextArea;
private var journalID:String;
override protected function createChildren():void
{
myTextArea = new TextArea();
myTextArea.addEventListener(FocusEvent.FOCUS_OUT, myFocusOutHandler);
}
private function myFocusOutHandler(event:FocusEvent):void
{
// the ‘this’ pointer is the instance of Page
// event.currentTarget is the TextArea
journalID = TextArea(event.currentTarget.text);
}
}

I have an instance of a Class (Page) which has a textarea on it which is
editable. I added an eventlistener to the TextArea for
FocusEvent.FOCUS_OUT. When the FocusEvent (e) gets to the hander, I can
use e.currentTarget to get the value of the TextArea, but I need a value
in a variable in the same instance of the Page Class (journalID). I have
been looking through the debugger but I cannot figure out how to get
that value.
Long story short I need the variable journalID on the same Class that
contains the TextArea.
Thanks.
