ive created an object that extends TextField, let's say "MyTextField". i just want it to be a TextField with a few extra functions.
i have a flash component that takes a TextField instance name as a parameter. my goal is to dynamically create a MyTextField and have the component use that, but it seems to choke, presumably because it sees its not a TextField. it seems the program doesnt really "know" that MyTextField has all the properties of a TextField and should be able to stand in for one.
simply casting it to a TextField doesnt seem to work either, unsurprisingly. so whats the best way to go here?
im just looking for the simplest way that i can use MyTextfield in code that calls for a TextField. im sorta familiar with oop basics... but not much real experience.
thanks>>
