Have the login component fire an event upon succesful, or failed, login.
Have the 'main app" respond to the event by changing states (or
displaying an error).

Hi,
I'm working on an application, which is component based. One of my
components is a Login screen, in which the user enters the username
and password, these details are passed to a ColdFusion CFC and
checked, the result is then checked.
If the login is successful I want to be able to change the state in
the main application file from the Login state to the Home state,
originally I tried using:
this.currentState = 'Home';
But this was in the Login component, which doesn't have states, so
that didn't work. What is the best practice for components to call
the main application to perform tasks like changing the state?
Thanks
Stephen
