<mx:DataGrid id="dgAutoFill" x="11" y="234" width="934" dataProvider="{rssHln.lastResult.rss.channel.item}">
        <mx:columns>
            <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="title" headerText="Titel"/>
            <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="description" headerText="Omschrijving"/>
            <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="pubDate" headerText="Publicatiedatum"/>
            <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="link" headerText="Link"/>
        </mx:columns>
    </mx:DataGrid>

I’m trying to get the title from the selecteditem from this datagrid (which is filled by a rss-feed) in a label. I’ve searched for ways, but I can’t find how I should get this done.

This is the eventhandler I’ve added to the datagrid, and the function:

dgAutoFill.addEventListener(ListEvent.ITEM_CLICK, showDetails);

public function showDetails(event:ListEvent):void {
            lblTitle.text = ?;
        }

Answer 1

I think you want to create an click event handler, like this:

protected function showDetails(event:ListEvent):void{
  myLabel.text = dgAutoFill.selectedItem.title;
}
