```auto

public function createMenus(mArray:Array)
		{
			for (var i:int = 0; i < mArray.length; i++)
			{
				var siteButton:MainMenuButton = new MainMenuButton(mArray*);
					siteButton.name = mArray*.name;
					siteButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clicked);
					siteButton.x = 110 * j;
					MainNavigation.getInstance().addChild(siteButton);
					j++;
				}

		// the line below is giving an error saying Access of an undefined property Home	
   ** Home.dispatchEvent (new MouseEvent(MouseEvent.CLICK));
**
		}// end function 

		
	public function clicked(e:MouseEvent):void
