IMO, there's nothing wrong with using TextField.variable. It has its time and place and can be used properly.
Just because it's overused by novices doesn't make it a bad thing, just like bevels and dropshadows in Photoshop aren't always a bad thing either. Of course, Lens Flare is a different story. ;) _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
