Re: [Junk E-Mail - MED] [flexcoders] Problem with States and switching to a give
Hi, Thanks for the quick response. Makes sense a bit more. I posted a similar question before and got good answer but still wanted to get some additional insight.

Hi, How do you change the state from within different mxml files. My code is below. As of now I do not have any functions or anything written. I am just trying to work with the states in a simplistic manner. I have 3 files. Main.mxml, LoginPanel.mxml, Home.mxml. I want the base state to be the login page when Main.mxml is run, once the user logs in, then I want to go to Home.mxml.
