That should work, the second argument in the event constructor makes it
bubble.
I don't see your listener defined. You should do that in a function
called on creation complete of the application:
this.addEventListener(Event.ADDED, onAction)

Subject: [flexcoders] how to bubble and catch events
I have the following scenario. I need to catch the click events for
either of the two buttons. I tried putting the event handler on the
DataGrid, but I'm getting an unresolved error for it. Is this even
possible?
Thanks in advance for any help.
