Haxe

if you are using custom xml components you can go one better:

```haxe
@:build(...)
class Bob {
    @:bind(lotButton, MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER)
    function onEvent(e) {
        ....
    }
}
```

yep, was thinking about that on Saturday. I was trying to get onChange working so I could do some stuff in CSS/HTML. looked in the code and decided that wouldn't work. Then I had the brilliant idea to use MOUSE_OVER to compensate for :hover

I wanted to :hover and then do a height change on my container.

in real full css it does but there are some transition stuff in there that is used

yeah, was thinking you might have to use a 1 frame animation

to go back to the original size on mouse out

unless you elements are a fixed size, then it should be easy

yes I was thinking that also as a way since I got animation down pat

but the button (or component) has to have fixed size, otherwise it doesnt know what size to go back to

animation would fix that as it holds onto the values

hmm i have icon buttons - defined as auto with the icon a fixed size

ahh it might not have worked since I had the css style in my Theme

let me play with that - would be a lot more elegant

```<box width="20%" height="100%" >
    <style>
        #gc_lot .image {
            #iconBox {
                height: 148px;
            }
        }
        #gc_lot:hover .image {
            #iconBox {
                height: 280px;
            }
        }
    </style>
    <vbox id="iconBox" width="100%" height="148" verticalAlign="bottom" style="border:2px solid green; " >
        <button id="gc_lot" icon="images/icons/gc/gc_lot.png"  styleName="ui" />
```

haxeui doesnt support that nested css style

and im not really sure it makes sense even if it did

i was pretty sure this doesn't work:  http://haxeui.org/builder/?rqnbfu

the CSS code I found uses display: flex and flex-direction  - but hey it works ok in code so I'll just do a custom container
