What version of flash are you using? YOu can try delegate to solve scoping
issues but i kinda set it up in two ways as the comments suggest.
Also, avoid references to root if possible.
import mx.util.Delegate;
function buildNav(p_content:Array):Void {
for (var i:Number = 0; i<numberOfItems; i++) {
//attach the nav Item
trace("done iteration "+i);
var mc:MovieClip= navContainer.attachMovie("navItem", "navItem"+i,
i);
mc._y =i*15
mc._x = 0
//assign the title
mc.navItemText =p_content[i].navItemText;
// you could do this to correct scope
mc.link=p_content[i].jobURL;
mc.select=Delegate.create(this,onSelect);// this allows you to
pass //params
mc.onRelease=function(){this.select(this.link)}
// or you could do something like :
// mc.onRelease=function(){
getURL(this.link,"_blank");
}
}
}
function onSelect(p_url:String){
getURL(p_url,"_blank");
}
buildNav(contentItems);// build the nav passing in the data
