Thanks for the info Tracy. I will look into that. I'm still new to Flex so I'm learning fast. What I have is a linkbar that is attached to a viewstack. I have three items on the linkbar (Home, Forum, Contacts). It seems that linkbar in this manner creates a canvas component to be shown for each respective linkbar item. I tried to take the one for the "forum" and use it to navigateToUrl with no luck. I added an id to the canvas and attempted to use the click attribute to make it function but it seems as if "click" is not acceptable or functional on a canvas component? I seen mention of onClick, so I am going to look into that.
Thanks for your help. Paul
