I have had some good success in getting large chunks of my app done, but there are a few things that I can't seem to figure out, or at least get to working. I was able to figure out how to open up a new window that was based on a xib file, but what I really want to do is open the new window and close the current one which opened the new one. Also in the process of opening the new window I want to pass some data, at this point a single string. What is the best way to go about this? My lack of experience with cocoa, and by extension objective-c, is really killing me on figuring this out. Unfortuneatly there isn't just a simple close() method to call. Here is the code I am playing with to get this to work. Any help would be appreciated. https://gist.github.com/813803 Thanks Buddy --- Buddy Lindsey http://www.buddylindsey.com http://www.twitter.com/buddylindsey
