Which chart was clicked on?

[FlexBeginner]

Hi,

event.target.name appears to give me what I'm after but is there a better
(more usual) way of obtaining the id/name of the chart that was clicked on? For
example, is there no way to derive it from event.hitData.chartItem?

Also, please tell me what the ActionScript equivilent of the following
JavaScript is: -

var myObj = document.getElementById(myVar);

Cheers Richard Maher

FlexBeginner,

event.currentTarget (rather than event.name) is always the better option to
ensure you're consistently getting the correct object that dispatched the click
event. Put a break point on the line in your event handler for that click and
you can check out all the props associated with the click event, they'll have
the info you're after.
