Sharing events

1

Hi,

I have a external classes for my buttons that have events attached to them.

package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.EventDispatcher;

public class MenuButtons extends MovieClip {
   
   public function MenuButtons():void
    {
        
      **  addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, EventListeners.clickIt());**
        addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, expandMenu);
        addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, retractMenu);
        

        
}

What I want to do is create an external EventListeners.as class which detects this click

package {
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.EventDispatcher;

public class EventListeners extends Sprite {
    
    
   
   public function EventListeners():void
    {
        
        
    
        
    }
    
    
      public function clickIt():void
    {
        
        
    trace('this is has been clicked');
        
    }


}

}

I think I am a fair bit off, can anyone help?

Thanks
