I have a menubar that uses an xml list as the dataprovider..below is a
sample...
<mx:XMLList id="TopMenu">
<menuitem label="New " data="top" icon="NewIcon">
<menuitem label="Request" data="NewRequest"/>
<menuitem label="Reboot" data="NewReboot"/>
</menuitem>
<menuitem label="Edit " data="Edit" icon="EditIcon"
type="normal">
</menuitem>
<menuitem label="Print " data="Print" icon="PrintIcon">
</menuitem>
<menuitem label="Search " data="Search" icon="FindIcon">
</menuitem>
<menuitem label="Calendar " data="Calendar"
icon="CalendarIcon">
</menuitem>
and I call a menuhandler function...that looks at the @data tag of the
xml and then runs another function to open a new window...
private function menuHandler(event:MenuEvent):void {
if([EMAIL PROTECTED] == "NewRequest") {
showNewRequestWindow();
}
else if([EMAIL PROTECTED] == "Edit") {
showEditRequestWindow();
}
else if([EMAIL PROTECTED] == "Print") {
getUrl();
}
else if([EMAIL PROTECTED] == "HelpUsersGuide") {
showAboutWindow();
}
The issue is that I get no event when clicking on the menu item that
has no children like "Edit" from above....so how do I get the
information from the parent menu item to be able to run another function?
