Hi All,
I feel this is such a simple issue yet I cannoth find anything on it. I do not understand why I cannot get a created button to behave like a component button with listeners. Due to the created button the size of the .fla file exceeds the forum limit so if you are interested in this please email me and I will forward it to you, about 750 kb. There is something I am missing.
Here is the simple code:
// create a listener object for the Submit button
// this is a component button
btnSubmitListener = new Object();
// register the submit button listener listen for the click events
btnSubmit.addEventListener(“click”,btnSubmitListener);
btnSubmitListener.click = function(){
// user clicked the submit button
checkboxStatus.text = “Submit Button pressed”;
}
//+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
// create a listener object for the Trace button
// this is a created button
btnTraceListener = new Object();
// register the submit button listener listen for the click events
btnTrace.addEventListener(“click”,btnTraceListener);
btnTraceListener.click = function(){
// user clicked the submit button
checkboxStatus.text = “Trace button pressed”;
}
//++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
// create a listener object for the Reset button
// this is a component button
btnResetListener = new Object();
// register the submit button listener listen for the click events
btnReset.addEventListener(“click”,btnResetListener);
btnResetListener.click = function(){
// user clicked the submit button
checkboxStatus.text = “Reset button pressed”;
}
In my final application I guess I could place my code in the button action but everything else I am inputting is done with listeners and there are upgrades to come that will work better that way too. I have tried the Broadcast method but not been successful with that either. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
