Here is my itemRenderer... package customcomponents { import flash.events.*; import mx.controls.*; import mx.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridListData; import mx.core.*;
public class CellField extends LinkButton { public var fieldValue:String; public function CellField() { super(); addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Application.application.cellClick); } override public function set data(value:Object):void { if(value != null) { super.data = value; fieldValue = value[DataGridListData(listData).dataField]; if (Number(fieldValue) == 0) { label = "0"; enabled = false; useHandCursor = false; } else { label = fieldValue; enabled = true; useHandCursor = true; setStyle("color", "#FF0000"); setStyle("textDecoration", "underline"); setStyle("textRollOverColor:", "#0000CC"); } } } } } And here is how I am using it... <mx:DataGridColumn id="ConfigChangesColumn" headerText="{newline}Config{newline}Changes" dataField="configchanges" width="60" sortable="false" itemRenderer="customcomponents.CellField"/> and here is the cellclick function... public function cellClick(event:Event):void { Alert.show(String(event.currentTarget)); } So, now I need to know which cell was clicked. Any help would be most appreciated. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Alex Harui" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Where are you adding the event listener?
