List Component

Yes, it's AS3 because you said you're working in CS3. I assumed AS3. My bad.

In AS2, it's not too much different though:

alist.dataProvider = [{label:"link1", data:"somelink"},{label:"link2",
data:"some other link"}];
alist.addEventListener("change", listClick);
function listClick():Void {
trace(alist.selectedItem.data);
}

Here's a little tidbit that should get you there:

import fl.data.DataProvider;
import fl.events.ListEvent;

var dp:DataProvider = new DataProvider();
dp.addItems([{label:"link1", data:"somelink"},{label:"link2", data:"some
other link"}]);
alist.dataProvider = dp;

alist.addEventListener(ListEvent.ITEM_CLICK, listClick);
function listClick(e:ListEvent):void {
trace(e.item.data);
}


It assumes a list component on stage with an instance name of alist. When
you click a list item you'll see the string from the data part of the
objects you added with addItems.
