Since it looks like MiniTextEditor is a custom component, you could make a public variable, or at least a public setter, inside your component so that a reference is available in your component. Then you would instantiate it like this:
textPopUp = new MiniTextEditor(); textPopUp.creator = this; PopUpManager.addPopUp( textPopUp, this ); Then the variable should be available to you. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Derrick Anderson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > hi, > > i create a popup like this from file A: > > textPopUp = > MiniTextEditor( > PopUpManager.createPopUp(this, MiniTextEditor)); > > in this case 'this' is file B: > > from my popup I am trying to call a function in file A, and since the parent > i pass to the popup is not actually the 'parent' - i can't figure out how to > reference a function in the actual parent. any ideas? > > d. >
