I went through the help documents and the forum but could not find anything on how to dispatch events with params. I am not even sure if that is possible in AS3.

AS2

```auto

dispatchEvent({type: "onClick", target: this, id: this.id});

```

AS3

```auto

dispatchEvent(new Event("onClick"));

```
