in MyTooltip you can re-assign the onRollOver to another name and call that from
the new onRollOver, like this :
in MyTooltip
mc.onRollOver2 = mc.onRollOver;
mc.onRollOver = function()

thats one way of doing it

maybe using mx.events.EventDispatcher could help

Classes are unaware of the timeline they are imported into. So you need
to pass a reference. Also, wouldn't make sense to me to do an extends
on MovieClip if you are going to refer to another clip altogether. So
instead of that, pass a reference to the timeline through your
constructor
Class 'linker' is not dynamic. This means that unless you add something like
private var theClip:MovieClip;
(or:
dynamic class linker extends MovieClip)
to your class definition, you can't reference it within the class.

All the solutions worked perfectly, thanks everyone. But, Arul, what is
the advantage of putting it in an onLoad function instead of the
constructor?

But, Arul, what is the advantage of putting it in an onLoad function

Just to be on the safer side, thats all :)
Try this:
add a trace each in the constructor and the onLoad. And test your movie.
You'll see that the constructor gets called even before onLoad.
Now,
Placing that code instead in the onLoad method makes sure that it will
work.
Great explanation, thanks Arul.

Can you write dynamic methods in a class?

I don't think you can create dynamic functions.. even if you could, I
don't see the need to.
use your arguments to make your functions all-purpose.
Ex.
function onBtnPress(n:Number):Void
{
trace(n + was pressed.);
}
button0.onRelease = Delegate.create(this, onBtnPress, 0);
button1.onRelease
this happens to me only sometimes and when I use negative leadings.
Try to encapsulate your textfield with a movieclip and grab the height
of the movieclip instead of the textfield height. That's the common
workaround, I think.
