I don't know about AS3 (and I can't imagine this is different from AS2)
but you cannot put any code before super() in a constructor.
super() must be the first line of code in a constructor.
You should pass the labelClass value to the super constructor (watch
your every move, super constructor).
super("date");
and in your parent
function ClassName(lc:String)
{
labelClass = lc;
}
