Hi all,

I have another Flex/Flash/Actionscript 3.0 question. I separate my code into several applications. Right now, one is frontpage.mxml and frontpage.as, and the other main one is contactForm.mxml and contactForm.as.

I have both of these files compiled into swf’s and they work when I open their individual file, but I cannot load the contactForm.swf into the frontpage application.

It is reporting a width and height of 0 and even though it is completely loaded (an event fires for that), none of the constructor is actually called as I have logging enabled in there to capture it all.

Is there another way to do this, I want to keep the contactForm a separate entity where I can edit it outside of the frontpage class so it can be a module/element that can be added to any component within my site?

Thanks,  
Walter
