[flexcoders] Dispatch event in itemClickHandler

[hu22hugo]

The code below works fine except for the fact that the menu of the
PopUpButton does not close. When I comment out the
CairngormEventDispatcher, the PopUpButton closes. So I assume that
there is something wrong with dispatching an event in a
handler??
