Subject: [flexcoders] Component in list communicating with main application





Hi

I have been going through the sample posted by Lee Brimelow ( 
http://www.gotoandlearn.com/play?id=100 ) to demonstrate how to populate a list 
with a custom application component with databinding.

Basically an array collection is populated and then a list is populated with a 
set of HBoxes that are bound to the data in the collection.

Here is the code that I am using for the component:-

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:HBox xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";>
<mx:Image width="50" height="50" source="{data.user.profile_image_url}"/>
<mx:Text width="100%" text="{data.text}"/>

</mx:HBox>

What I want to do is to add a function to allow the component to call a 
function in the main application I tried adding a button with a click to the 
function but it cannot access it.

How do I get the component to send information back to the application when the 
button has been clicked?

Many thanks, Andrew
