Ya I ditched the repeater approach, the AS
route was more practical…and mouseDown…omg I can’t believe I
missed an obvious solution like that hehe. There was no click event so I moved
on to Links, where all the trouble started!
Thanks Darin, I should be good to go now…
Cheers,
Stace
p.s. that url gave me a blank swf ?

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: (new
issue) Using Embed with dynamic values possible?
I've got dynamically loaded images (as images - not icons) that I then
'simulate' as links by having event listeners take
action on mouse
down and up events - which then call getURL() to
send someone elsewhere.
This should be public soon enough, and I may get
in trouble for
sharing it ;) but check out:

There are still a few quirks that I'm working out,
so this isn't the
final version.
I don't use repeaters, but generate everything
with AS as I recieve
data from the provider - looping through and
addChild()'ing as I go
(just remember to clear your field before adding
more).
Hope this helps - give it a play.
