Hello all-

I am having a problem using the color object. I have a class I created and want to assign it a color object upon creation.

[AS]  
anchorClass.prototype.onLoad = function() {  
this.myColor = new Color(this);  
};  
[/AS]

Why doesnt this work? The result in the debugger when I select the instance and look under the variables tab shows the ‘myColor’ variable but when I expand it it goes on forever.

+myColor  
+target  
+myColor  
+target  
… this goes on forever…

Thanks,  
Andy

PS - the attached fla uses a workaround but the above code is in it
