Hi, Dave. Thanks for your insight. After the first two days I considered doing just that, keeping to the good old components I knew. But I considered it might be something really stupid I might be doing and, as such, I tried to figure it out. I'd like to thank Kevin as well, but I have already posted it on forums.talkto.net (right after I posted it here) and I think it is time to find alternatives because I can't afford much time to solving such small problems. I'll check the source code as soon as I can and, after solving the problems, I may post it in the forums and switch back to Jedi in order to keep everything in a "single" package.
One thing that I miss in the Jedi project is what's new or different from the original components. Am I wrong or do I have to go through the code to find what is inherited and what is changed? Thanks again for your help.
