Hi there,

This is a very simple but I can't get it work. I have a panel and I want to change it's with to 100% by means of ActionScript. Here's what I do:

 public function changeWidth():void {
             mainPanel.width = 100%;
}

where mainPanel if of course the ID of my panel.

I get an error like: semicolon is unexpected. I have tried using mainPanel.width="100%"; but this does not work also because .width is of type integer.

Any ideas on how to achieve this?

thanks,
George
