I would definitely recommend reading the docs I linked to in my other
post but since I know seeing progress is always helpful here is a
quick block of pseudo code for what you're talking about. Creating
menus/buttons from XML, ah nostalgia. :)
for each( var node:XML in menuXML.children() )
{
var btn:Button = new Button();
btn.label = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
btn.addEventListener( MouseEvent.CLICK, handleClick );
menuContainer.addChild( btn );
}
...
private function handleClick( event:MouseEvent ):void
{
trace( Button( event.target ).label + " was clicked" );
}
HTH,
