Just had exactly this issue with my own code – thanks for the solution.

Just to add that ‘myFunction’ obviously now cannot be private.

var websites: Array = [

{label:"Yahoo", data:"http://www.yahoo.com"},
{label:"Google", data:"http://www.google.com"},
{label:"Hello-World", data:"http://www.hello-world.com"}
];

cboLinks.dataProvider = new DataProvider(websites);
cboLinks.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, linktoPage);

function linktoPage(event:Event): void {

var site: URLRequest = new URLRequest();
site.url = cboLinks.selectedItem.data;
navigateToURL(site);

}

I also get error 1180 for that which is lol calling to undefined methoddddd. Is it a similar problem? Guessing now…but anyone know?

Any thoughts on how to pass data to the outerDocument function? click=”outerDocument.myFunction(data.foo);” doesn’t seem to work and click=”outerDocument.myFunction({data.foo});” doesn’t compile.

I would love to know the answer to this too

Hello All,

Got a similar problem but my ItemRenderer is another component. Therefore the outerDocument.myFunc(); did not work. But I was lucky to guess the solution. If your ItemRenderer is another component, then the below works just fine.

click=”parentDocument.myFunc();”

Cheers,

D.

Excellent

Blessing on your head!!! ))))
it’s a shame that they don’t talk about this kind of problems when making video tutorials (((

Thanks – that solved my issue.

Thanks a lot for this article, been searching for a solution for ages, and thanks to Doruk for your solution with external components, I can now continue my project properly

You Rock!

I was searching all over for why this was happening.

Thanks!

@Tom @Nikos: Make sure the methods you’re calling are marked as public. private and protected won’t cut it.

thanks!
