| OK, it's all kind of good, but here's what I have discovered. My itemRenderer is a component based on HBox, this is being used as an itemRenderer for a column of a dataGrid. In that component I had 3 Label items. I can create rollover effects for each like so:
<mx:Label id="xx" text="A Link" rollOver="doRoll(xx)" rollOut="doRollOut(xx)" click="doClick(xx)" />
my methods for doRollover and doRollout just change the textField.textColor propery of the label. The problem is they don't respond to the click event. I swapped the Labels out for LinkButtons, and that now responds to the click event, and I can broadcast up to my component containing the dataGrid, retrieve the selected item, etc, etc, and I'm happy. But the LinkButton components don't align correctly and don't get a rollover event, and they get an ugly pushButton effect, etc. So anyone have any ideas about what's going on here? I'd love to have this working much cleaner, and purdier. Thanks!

Make sure that the event your item renderer dispatches has
"bubbles=true". That way, the DataGrid will dispatch the event after the
renderer dispatches it.

Subject: [flexcoders] dispatching an event from an itemRenderer
OK, this has been giving me trouble for 2 hours now. Flex 2 Beta 2,
btw. So I have a component with a dataGrid in it. For one of the
dataGridColumns I have itemRenderer set to another component, in
which I have a few text fields. I would like to dispatch an event
when one of those text fields is clicked, and add an event listener
for it in the component containing the dataGrid. But this will just
not happen for me. Does anyone have any examples of doing something
like this? Imagine hyperlinks in the dataGrid cells. Of course I will
need to access the data for that cell, but one step at a time, perhaps!
