I'm currently learning how to utilize components. In a slideshow app, I have a thumbnail component (image) that is rendered by a TileList in the main application. dataProvider in the TileList is being used to supply the path, image name, etc, by sending a repeating node of an xml file. However, I'd like the thumbnail component to also be able to read a property of a "selected" parent node (via a ComboBox in the main application) of the data its receiving.
Can I make a bound variable in the main application dynmaically accessible by the component? The xml is basically laid out as root(i.e. URL to root).album(i.e. folder name).image(i.e. filename), and any time I render an image, I'm recollecting the various nodes to produce an absolute URL to the image. Hope that makes sense...still learning my Flex2 terminology. - Chris -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
