by 'is nice, but we cannot figure out how to make anything load.' what do you mean? The menu itself or the URL you want to navigate to based on a click in the menu? Andy's example shows how to capture the event on click of a item. To actually open a browser window and nav to a URL in your data based on this click, look at UrlRequest. Here is a example
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest(); url.url = 'http://www.yahoo.com'; //who uses this still? hehe navigateToURL(url, '_top') //note that you can use the standard html stuff _top, _self, etc. HTH DK On Jan 16, 2008 10:55 AM, Crews, Donna <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I am trying to build a menu that actually opens a URL or loads a SWF. > However, there is no good documentation on menu events. > > Went to the Adobe site and this menu > > http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/201/html/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Book_Parts&file=menucontrols_061_5.html > > is nice, but we cannot figure out how to make anything load.
