button is null because document.createElement("button") is not an instance
of MyButton.
Is this supposed to work?
MyButton.as
package {
public class MyButton extends HTMLButtonElement {
public function MyButton() {
super();
this.addEventListener("click", button_clickListener, false);
}
private function button_clickListener(event : MouseEvent) : void {
alert("Hello World");
}
}
}
WebProject1.as
package {
public class WebProject1 {
public function WebProject1() {
var button : MyButton = document.createElement("button") as MyButton;
button.innerHTML = "Press Me";
document.body.appendChild(button);
}
}
}
This code compiles fine, but when I run it, I am getting a null for
variable button.
Console log:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'innerHTML' of null
Thanks,
Om
