Question

I have an Array of string which represents links. I want to display them in a list and make them work like links. How do I do that?

Answer 1

You could create a list with LinkButton as the itemRenderer. You would also need to add event listeners to the list to actually do navigation. Use navigateToURL to run the link. MXML for the list:

<mx:List id='myList'      itemRenderer='mx.controls.LinkButton'     click='navigateToURL(new URLRequest(myList.selectedItem.text))'>  </mx:List> 

Then in the actionscript part (Or you could set this in the MXML too if you’d like).

myList.dataProvider = arrayOfLinkStrings;
