The FABridge relies on the ability to introspect actionscript types and create proxies in javascript for classes, methods. and properties on the fly. Since Model is dynamic it can't be introspected by the current bridge behavior, so you can't manipulate it directly through the Bridge. You have three options: 1) the bridge has low level APIs for setting and getting properties, and calling methods, on an arbitrary object reference. You can see if using these to access members of the model fixes your problem. 2) if you know in advance what type of manipulations you want to do to your model, you can write methods in your application to do them, and call those (with parameters) from your javascript. 3) use a strongly typed class based model rather than the generic model tag.

How do I make it work? Your help is greatly appreciated. R.
