The choice item is defined in MXML as <menuitem label="Help"> <menuitem label="Documentation" data="documentation.swf" /> </menuitem>
Code on what to do when it is selected is <mx:ApplicationControlBar id="appBar" x="0" y="0" dock="false" visible="false" width="100%"> <mx:MenuBar id="appNavigation" dataProvider="{appNavigation_dp}" labelField="@label" iconField="@icon" itemClick="menuBarButtons(event);" /> </mx:ApplicationControlBar> Function called menuBarButtons is private function menuBarButtons(event:MenuEvent):void{ var pageName:String = event.it...@data; switch(pageName){ case 'Documentation': var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest('http://www.mydocumentation.com'); navigateToURL(url,'_blank'); break; } I have done the required imports such as import flash.net.navigateToURL; import flash.net.URLRequest; import flash.net.URLVariables; When I click on the Documentation option from the Help menu choice, no new URL opens while I am expecting a page with a URL http://www.mydocumentation.com to be opened What am I missing? Any suggestions would be appreciated. ------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, simply email the list with unsubscribe in the subject line For more info, see http://www.affug.com Archive @ http://www.mail-archive.com/discussion%40affug.com/ List hosted by http://www.fusionlink.com -------------------------------------------------------------
