Question

I am using Flex 4.

I have created an image gallery with TileList When I click on an item in the TileList, I want the image to display by the side of the TileList in a BitmapImage.

Can anyone help me with this?

See my code Below. RIght now the image is loaded in a PopUp..I want it to display in an BitmapImage box.

Try to use something like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

            modal-transparency-blur: 9;
        }
    </mx:Style>

    <mx:XML id="xml" source="gallery.xml" />
    <mx:XMLListCollection id="xmlListColl" source="{xml.image}" />

    <mx:TileList id="tileList"
