In the Controller Class { public function init() { customClassInstance .addEventListene r ("menuitemClicked" , menuitemClickHandle r); } Thanks again Duncan ----- Original Message ---- From: Muzak <p.ginneberge@ telenet.be> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ups.com Sent: Friday, 16 November, 2007 6:14:27 PM Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Event dispatching and receiving ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Hueners" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] ex.com> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] ups.com> Sent: Friday, November 16, 2007 7:08 PM Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Event dispatching and receiving > Under what circumstances could something not on the displayList be clickable? > Bad programming ;-) > On 11/16/07, Muzak <p.ginneberge@ telenet.be> wrote: >> > I've tried not using Application. appication and still get nothing, >> > what am I not understanding about receiving events from another Class. >> >> That events dispatched from an instance not on the display list do not >> bubble. >> >> regards, >> Muzak > -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups. yahoo.com/ group/flexcoders /files/flexcoder sFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail- archive.com/ flexcoders% 40yahoogroups. com Yahoo!
