You cannot do this: click="navigateToURL(myrepeater.currentItem.url)"
You will get an error. currentItem only exists when the repeater is executing, not when the "click" action happens. For simple cases, you can use getRepeaterItem() in the handler. For even slightly more complex repeated components, create a custom component and repeat that.
