I'm running into a type conversion error. Essentially this is what I'm trying to do: o.view contains the portion of my fragment - say it is set to "sytems" with (.../index.html#view=systems) var o:Object = URLUtil.stringToObject(browserManager.fragment); I then try to set the selectedChild of my ViewStack with: myVS.selectedChild = o.view; I get the following: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert "sytems" to mx.core.Container. I'm not sure how to make this work. Any thoughts? Thanks.
