    <p>Hello Fellow stackoverflowers,</p> <p>I´m stuck writing a piece of code. I have application with a viewstack witch load 5 modules. each module is loaded via the moduleLoader tag and they all have an id.</p> <p>Every loaded module has a context menu. the context menu has 5 menuItems. one menuItem for each view for the viewstack.</p> <p>The context menu is loaded via xml.</p> <p>this is my application file.</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" backgroundColor="#b1b1b1" backgroundGradientColors="[#b1b1b1,#252525]"&gt; &lt;mx:Script&gt; &lt;![CDATA[ import mx.core.Container; //change viewstack views via modules context menu public function switchView(viewId:String):void { var container:Container = Container(tops.getChildByName(viewId)); if (container != null) { tops.selectedChild = container; } } ]]&gt; &lt;/mx:Script&gt; &lt;mx:ViewStack id="tops" width="100%" height="100%"&gt; &lt;mx:ModuleLoader id="admin" url="view/admin.swf" width="100%" height="100%"/&gt; &lt;mx:ModuleLoader id="tv" url="view/tv.swf" width="100%" height="100%"/&gt; &lt;mx:ModuleLoader id="community" url="view/community.swf" width="100%" height="100%"/&gt; &lt;mx:ModuleLoader id="shop" url="view/shop.swf" width="100%" height="100%"/&gt; &lt;mx:ModuleLoader id="communicator" url="view/communicator.swf" width="100%" height="100%"/&gt; &lt;/mx:ViewStack&gt; &lt;/mx:Application&gt; </code></pre> <p>and this is my switch statement in my Module</p> <pre><code>public function changeView():void{ switch(action) { case "admin": parentApplication.switchView("admin"); break; case "tv": parentApplication.switchView("tv"); break; case "shop": parentApplication.switchView("shop"); break; case "community": parentApplication.switchView("community"); break; case "default": parentApplication.switchView("communicator"); break; } } </code></pre> <p>and this is my context menu xml</p> <pre><code> &lt;mx:XML id="appMenu"&gt; &lt;root&gt; &lt;menuitem enabled="false"/&gt; &lt;menuitem label="Administration" action="admin" icon="adminMDI"/&gt; &lt;menuitem label="Television" action="tv" icon="tvMDI"/&gt; &lt;menuitem label="Community" action="community" icon="communityMDI"/&gt; &lt;menuitem label="Shopping Mall" action="shop" icon="shoppingMallMDI"/&gt; &lt;menuitem label="Communicator" action="default" icon="communicatorMDI"/&gt; &lt;/root&gt; &lt;/mx:XML&gt; </code></pre> <p>What i would like to do is switch the views in the viewstack by clicking on one of the menuitems in the context menu. i can't communicate from my module to the application. What am i doing wrong? what must i do? Can anybody help me out?</p> <p>Oyeah before i forget </p> <p>the xml of the context menu is in the module but, the context menu is in a as file that extensiate a button.</p> <p>please can any body give me a good example how to accomplish this.</p> <p>Thank</p> <p>DJ</p>

    1. COWhat kind of debugging have you already done? Have you checked that your function is firing at all with a simple trace or Alert.show()? If your function in the module is firing is it in turn firing the function in the parent app? I like to make a generic Alert.show('fired'); statement and move it down my function to make sure each part of it is firing. As soon as you move it past something that is causing an error it will fail.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
