GetImageReference and eventListeners

Question

Hi,
Through a textField you can access images (or it's Loader
object) with
getImageReference( imgId ). This works fine.
Now I want to add eventListeners to the Loader to detect
mouseClicks on
the images. But somehow that part won't work.
Code from a quick test:
In a function which loads the XML I have these lines:
var img:Loader = Loader( html_txt.getImageReference( "img_0"
img.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE,
loadedImage );
the eventListeners are:
function clickImage( evt:MouseEvent ):void
trace( evt.target );
function loadedImage( evt:Event ):void
trace( evt.target.content, "is loaded" )
var li:LoaderInfo = LoaderInfo( evt.target );
li.content.addEventListener( MouseEvent.CLICK, clickImage );
li.loader.addEventListener( MouseEvent.CLICK, clickImage );
Al this traces:
[object Bitmap] is loaded
If I click on tha image in the textField however, nothing
happens... Now
I could go with the textField, have it listen to mouseEvents,
get the
bounds of all the images in it and see over which the mouse
is at that
moment, but that seems rather silly if I could get each image
to
register it's own listeners.
Anybody?
Thanks in advance.

Hi kglad and others,
well, it works, but not as intended (at least, not my
intention ;) ).
addChild( img ); adds the image to the root (or parent of the
textField) thereby removing it, like documentation states, from the
textField itself. Ok, it becomes clickable, but not as part of the
content of the textField.
You cant issue addChild() on the textField in anyway so that
won't work.
Has anyone been able to do sort of the same thing as I'm
trying now?
Below is some simplified code working on this XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<rootnode>
<p>Lorem ipsum... </p>
<img src="plaatje.jpg" id="img_0" />
<p>Donec malesuada, arcu eget tristique convallis...
</p>
</rootnode>
Thanks,
Manno
