Hi guys, thanks for the fast responses - I'm currently creating the window in action script - but wanted to move it to MXML purely for easier binding:
i.e. <mx:TitleWindow title="{someVar}"/> Vs <mx:Script> creationComplete { BindingUtils.bindProperty(etc) } </mx:Script> I was just thinking I could write 1 line of MXML vs 10 - 20 lines of action script. Thanks, Mark ________________________________ From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Krotscheck Sent: 25 October 2007 12:38 To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Add reference in MXML without adding to children Does it have to be MXML? <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.managers.PopUpManager; import mx.containers.TitleWindow; [Bindable] private var titleWindow:TitleWindow; private function someFunction():void { titleWindow = new TitleWindow(); PopUpManager.addPopUp(titleWindow); } ]]> </mx:Script> Michael Krotscheck Senior Developer RESOURCE INTERACTIVE <http://www.resource.com/> www.resource.com <http://www.resource.com> [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ________________________________________________________________________ ____ This email and any of its attachments may contain Resource Interactive proprietary information, which is privileged, confidential and may be subject to copyright or other intellectual property rights belonging to Resource Interactive.

Thanks, Mark
