If it works and you meet the deadline, then it's good enough, eh? :) If you want to engage in what a fellow coder friend of mine calls "aromatherapy", I'm for it. I was mistaken in my impression that you were looking to understand the design pattern, which is why I was trying to lead you to Decorator and away from Flair because you weren't going to find any information on Flair that would be helpful, but there are plenty of helpful places to look for Decorator. If you want to discuss best practice for what you're doing, I'd be happy to offer ideas later today when I have more time. Other people might be able to chime in here on the best application of Decorator in Actionscript. _______________________________________________ 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
