Hi all,

I'm new to Flex but used OpenLaszlo before. I must now build an application to 
use with 
Zinc for my studies and as OpenLaszlo is not supported by Zinc, I decided to 
use Flex 2.

I have several components and would like to call some methods in other 
components.

Here's my application structure:

main Application

<component: login> which is a panel
<component: filenet> which is a canvas

within the filenet component I have several different components:

<component: sidebar> which is a accordion.

within the sidebar, there is a component called:
<component: addressBookTab> which is a canvas
and in this component there is an other component called:
<component: addressBook> which is a canvas

in the addressBook component, I want to call a HTTPService, but I must call it, 
after the 
user has authenticated himself (using the login component). I use the 
getAddressBookEntries() Function to call the HTTPService.

I therefore have a function, that handles the login. If the server gives back a 
true, then I 
would like to call the HTTPService and load the user specific data.

I use the following command:

parentDocument.filenet.sidebar.addressbookTab.addressBook.getAddressBookEntries();

I use the parentDocument property to get out of the login component and then 
try to go 
all the way down to the addressBook component and call the appropriate function.

Unfortunately, I don't have any success, as the method doesn't get called. Am I 
doing 
something wrong?

There must be some way to call a method from a component within an other 
component. 
Perhaps I use to many components, and this causes the error? I have ensured, 
that all id's 
assigned are unique within the whole application.

I hope you can help me solve this problem. If it is useful to post the source 
code, just let 
me know.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Best regards,


Pascal

PS: Is there any Flex 2 user here, who could help me out? I'm able to pay a bit 
money, as 
I'm on a very thight deadline and must get that app done in the next 14 days. 
Please 
contact me. I would just need an expert, who I may ask some questions, when I'm 
off the 
track again.
