In addition of Application.application.method(), you should be able to have in your Alert component (or the component that is aware of the Alert box and can detect a close event), something like this Application.application.dispatchEvent(new Event(MyAlertEvent.ALERT_CLOSED)) and in the other component that you want to be aware of the closed alert have Application.application.addEventListener(MyAlertEvent.ALERT_CLOSED, someMethod).
More generally, the solution is to have one component dispatch and event to and another component listen to an event from an object that both components are aware of. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "sleblang" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Thanks for all the suggestions.
