Your code is right, you just need a textfield with a link in it: var a:TextField = new TextField(); addChild(a); a.html = true; a.htmlText = "<a href='iforgotname:sometext'>click here</a>";

Jester? Thanks, Jesse. I was able to find the right event using the code hints in Flexbuilder (see below) but I'm stuck until I find out how asfunction has changed so I can actually trigger the event. I'll hold my breath until the docs come back... import flash.events.* private function init():Void { myTextArea.addEventListener( TextEventType.LINK, linkClickHandler ); } public function linkClickHandler( event:TextEvent ):Void { myTextArea.text = "worked"; } On 1/30/06, JesterXL <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Docs are down, but here's some psuedo code for you: > > import flash.util.trace; > your_txt.addEventListener(TextStuff.LINK, onHyperlinkClicked); > > function onHyperlinkClicked( event:Event ) > { > trace("You clicked on " + event.target); // your_txt > trace("The text is: " + event.text); // doSomething > } > > I think asfunction is changed to something else; again, wait until the > docs > come back up to get confirmation on WHAT it actually changed to, but > that's > the basic code.
