[flexcoders] Add reference in MXML without adding to children

[Mark Ingram]

Hi, does anyone know if it's possible to create a reference in MXML (so
that you can later use it as a variable and also easily use bindings)
but not add it to the parent's children?

 

i.e.

 

<mx:Canvas>

 

            <mx:Script>

            Private function someEvent()

            {

                        PopUpManager.addPopUp(titleWindow);

            }

            </mx:Script>

 

            <mx:TitleWindow/>

</mx:Canvas>

 

I don't want the title window to be shown inside the canvas, I just want
to create it as a variable.

 

Thanks,

 

Mark
