Peter, this is just to ilustrate... just did it here in the textarea... didnt even compiled.
if you want a real example... <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute" creationComplete="init()"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.controls.TextInput; function init():void { var ipt:TextInput = new TextInput(); ipt.name = "test_input"; ipt.id = "test_input"; ipt.addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE,traceInput); addChild(ipt); } function traceInput(evt:Event):void { trace(this['test_input']); } ]]> </mx:Script> </mx:Application> tell me why this['test_input'] doesnt work.... and HOW i'm suppose to make it work.... how i'm suppose to make reference to an object that i'm creating dynamically and adding to the stage... how do i access the staging. I hope it's clear now. thanks raf --- In [email protected], "Peter Hall" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I'm surprised that even compiles... > > Peter > > > On Nov 22, 2007 12:59 AM, Alex Harui <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I would avoid name collisions between functions and ids. > > > > > > > > ________________________________ > > > > > > From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > > Behalf Of Rafael Faria > > Sent: Wednesday, November 21, 2007 4:57 PM > > To: [email protected] > > Subject: [flexcoders] Flex Hierarchy > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > When i understand it my life will be so much easier... > > > > Look the code above... > > > > see that on the function "test2" it doesnt return the proper object? > > > > I know that exist some kind of hierarchy.... but what i couldnt get it > > is how i get the object that is on the global scope. > > > > i tried this.parent, this.parentDocument, this.parentApplication.... > > all of them and none of them seem to be working... > > > > someone can help me?!!?! > > > > thanks > > > > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> > > <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; > > creationComplete="init()"> > > <mx:Button id="test" label="Test" /> > > <mx:Canvas id="test2" label="testing" /> > > </mx:Application> > > > > <mx:Script> > > <![CDATA[ > > function init() > > { > > test(); > > test2(); > > > > function test2() > > { > > trace(this['test2']); > > } > > } > > > > function test() > > { > > trace(this['test2']) // return The object i want > > } > > > > ]]> > > </mx:Script> > > > > >
