Selecting an item in a datagrid

[Tarik Monem]

Hi Everyone,

I've been trying to do this application that I've been working on from so many different angels and I seem to be running into some kind of wall with every attempt. I have scrapped each attempt and it should be easy, but it's not.

I have simplified the app drastically by just having a datagrid being populated with the names of images from an array, which was populated via LoadVars. From there, I want to click on one of the cells(the name of an image) within the Datagrid and load the image into a MovieClip, but I continue to receive the message that "http://www.mydomain.co m/registration/images/undefined."

image1 is my Loader on stage

Here's the code

 
function defineListener() 
{
    var listener:Object = new Object();
    listener.headerRelease = function(evt:Object) 
    {
    columnHighlight(evt.columnIndex);
    };
    listener.cellPress = function(evt:Object) 
    {
        getImage();
        msg_ta2.text = "you clicked a cell";
    }
    dataGridMain.addEventListener("headerRelease", listener);
    dataGridMain.addEventListener("cellPress", listener);
}
 
defineListener();
 
function getImage() 
{
   var cartGrid = dataGridMain;
   var someNumber:Number = cartGrid.getSelectedIndex();
    var someWords:String = cartGrid.getSelectedItem;
   var imageSource:String = 'http://www.mydomain.com/registration/images/' + someWords;
   image1.load(imageSource);
}
 
 

I've tried to set someWords to cartGrid.select ed.data -- I've tried setting imageSource to imageAray[someNumber];

But it always returns undefined? How can I successfully populate a datagrid and then not be able to retrieve the value of a particular cell?

Thanks in advance

After a lot of reading over the internet, I came across this solution.

 
function defineListener() 
{
var myListener = new Object();
    myListener.cellPress = function(eObj) 
    {
         et = eObj.target;
         var cell = "(" + eObj.columnIndex + ", " + eObj.itemIndex + ")";
         // trace(" The cell at " + cell + " has been clicked ");
         // trace("Cell Text: " + et.getItemAt( eObj.itemIndex)[et.getColumnAt(eObj.columnIndex).columnName] );
 
         var imageSource:String = 'http://mydomain.com/registration/images/' +  et.getItemAt( eObj.itemIndex)[et.getColumnAt(eObj.columnIndex).columnName];
         image1.load(imageSource);
    };
dataGridMain.addEventListener("cellPress", myListener);
}
 
 defineListener();
