If I'm following you, I think you need to look into the creationPolity property.

I need, for example, to be able to set details.addEventListener() in the creationComplete function of the application... but details is NULL until it's been clicked on. One way might be to refactor the creation of everything here into actionscript, but it would be a long and tedious refactoring, and I don't have the time.
