Hi all, first post.

I'm new to python and tkinter.  I'm trying to write a program that
opens the root window with a button that then opens a toplevel window
that then has it's own widgets.  I can get the new toplevel window to
open but none of the widgets appear. The console gives me:

AttributeError: 'NewWindow' object has no attribute 'tk'

Here's my code:

####
from Tkinter import *


class Application(Frame):
        """The full screen window with menu"""
        def __init__(self, master):

                Frame.__init__(self, master)
                self.grid()
                self.create_menu()
                self.create_widget()

        def create_menu(self):
                """Create file and help menu"""
                #Create Filemenu
                filemenu = Menu(menubar, tearoff=0)
                filemenu.add_command(label = "Exit", command = root.quit)
                menubar.add_cascade(label="File", menu=filemenu)
                #Create Helpmenu
                helpmenu = Menu(menubar, tearoff=0)
                helpmenu.add_command(label="About", command=hello)
                menubar.add_cascade(label="Help", menu=helpmenu)

        def create_widget(self):
                """Make a button in the center that when pushed opens another
window"""
                self.bttn1 = Button(self, text = "Push to open new window",
command=NewWindow)
                self.bttn1.grid()


class NewWindow(object):

        def __init__(self):
                self.z = Toplevel()
                self.z.geometry("640x480")
                self.z.title("This is the New Window")
                self.frame = Frame(self.z)
                self.create_widgetnew()
                self.frame.grid()

        def create_widgetnew(self):
                self.lbl = Label(self, text = "Here is a label")
                self.lbl.grid(row = 0, column = 1, sticky = N)
                self.bttn = Button(self, text = "Close", command=self.z.quit)
                self.bttn.grid(row = 2, column = 1, sticky = S)

#Main

def hello():
        print "hello in the terminal"

root = Tk()
root.title("ROOT WINDOW")
root.geometry("300x200")
menubar = Menu(root)
root.config(menu=menubar)
mainapp=Application(root)
root.mainloop()
