I'm still pretty new to making components. Basically this one is like an image that navigates to a URL in HTML-land, except that I want to make it so you can set its text and URL as properties of the component. Seems to be utterly simple.
But I can't get it to hear the click event... It extends VBox and contains a label. It has a member variable of a URL and a click event so that clicking on the box (or the label) should navigate to that url. "click" does not show up in the auto-complete, but I get no errors when I implement it, and I see click there in the class hierarchy. But nothing happens. Breakpoints don't stop, nothing happens. What's got me puzzled is that in the mxml where I used this component, if I put code for the click event, it works flawlessly. Of course I could leave it there in the app, but naturally I'd prefer to encapsulate it so it has its own data and behaviors like any good little object. Is there something obvious I don't know? Thanks, Jack
