    Default XML Connector + Button Component

    I've created an RIA that pulls in RSS feeds from 3 different news websites
    in our area. I have the XML Connector placing the data into a title, 1st
    paragraph and link. I'm trying to figure out how to pass the link to the
    button, so that when the button is clicked it takes the user to the selected
    story. Any help would be appreciated.

    Default Re: XML Connector + Button Component

    I using trace to see what the button is outputting. When I did a trace of
    (articles_list) it gave me the // line. This is the code I'm using.

    [Q]go_btn.onRelease = function () {
    trace(articles_list.selectedItem);
    //_level0.application.DailyAmerican.articles_list
    }[/Q]

    I'm getting this error:

    [Q][object Object][/Q]

    I need it to output the URL of the selected item from the listbox to a new
    browser window.
