What you do is use
itemRollOver and the event.itemRenderer.data.name together.
I used it so when I roll over an item in the dataGrid it
changes the text area I have in my application with the description
of the current rolled over item. When I mouse over another entry
then the description changes to that description and on and on.
Here is the full code I used.
itemRollOver="NAME_OF_TEXT_AREA.text =
event.itemRenderer.data.description"
you would change the description to whatever the field is you
want, such as name, author, temp, books or whatever the data is.
I am actually bringing in data on videos from a database. XML
is created from the database using the XML plugin from Dreamweaver
Developer ToolBox. A PHP file is used to output the desired table
information then it is brought into Flex 2 application and the data
is propigated into the Data Grid I have setup. The Text Area is
updated with the description of the video both when one is selected
but also, now, when any of the items in the list are moused over,
or rolled over.
It works great. You can easily change this to work for your
app or at least give you a direction to go if it isn't exactly what
you need.
I have been trying to get this to work for a couple days now,
just found my solution and wanted to come post to let others know
about it.

  • While using firefox, when mouse over link causing monitor to crash

    Windows 7; Dell studio xps
    On mouse over a link/photo link and/or click on a link and my monitor goes into standby mode. Monitor still on (as is my computer) but cannot reestablish visual on monitor. Have used Explorer in the past and never had this problem. This error happens almost every time when I perform an image search with Google then mouse over a resulting image.

    Try to start Firefox in [[Safe mode|Safe mode]]. This mode disables all extensions, user customizations, hardware acceleration, etc. temporarily for diagnostic and troubleshooting. If Firefox works fine in Safe Mode, then this is likely an add-on issue. Restart Firefox in normal mode, then type "About:addons" (without the quotes) in the address bar. Disable your extensions one by one, restarting Firefox between each one, until you find the trouble maker. Once you do, you can disable that add-on and report the issue to that add-on's developer.
    A few other basic trouble shooting things you can try is this:
    Run all Windows Updates, install all needed service packs, etc.
    Update your graphics driver (Firefox uses your graphics card for some rendering, and an out of date graphics card driver can cause problems. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers].

    Do you know how to assign event listeners and event handler functions for them?  If so, you assign the listener to the object you want to rollover, using either MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER or MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER as the event.

  • Change Cursor When Mousing Over Links In Plug-in Manager

    As it stands, the links are blue - which is fine, but when you mouse over them the cursor doedn't change (nor does the link itself) so they don't look like they're hot. If the mouse doesn't change the link should or something (anything) so the user can tell they're links.
    Thanks,
    Rob

    the above sol will only help you to see the cursor on the local machine
    to make it visible on every machine
    goto column properties >> additional CSS>>in css write cursor:default
    then save changes system wide for these data type
    Also make the same changes in the other datatypes also.......

  • Pop up of some comment on mouse over to a particular component

    I have a column chart which display revenue for different products. I want to dispaly som comment on mouse over to a particular product. I have tried implementing it using a labels and dynamic visibility, but here in this solution I am facing problems due to default value. By default a label (comment) for a first product is displayed. I want a comment to be displayed only on mouse over.
    How Should this be implemented. Is there any other way to show pop ups on mouse over.

  • Dynamic linking within TextArea component

    how can i include an MC or button inline within the HTML text
    of a TextArea component -- and also have that object link to an AS
    function? i want to have icons within the text of my TextArea that
    open pop-up windows within the Flash application (MC linkage).
    is this possible?
    is asfunction used? if so how?

    Well if you are still interested in using a text component
    instead of a Button the way you would go about this is using
    textWidth. Here's how I've done it before using a text / label
    whatever you want that shows text.
    // => Set our text we got from database
    myText.text = "This is the text I got from the DB";
    // => Validate it so that way we make sure we get right
    numbers
    myText.validateNow();
    // => Find out how wide our text really is.
    var textWidth:Number = myText.textWidth
    // => Reset the width of our text component and add 20 for
    a little buffer
    myText.width = textWidth + 20;
    Now my suggestion is if your going to be dynamically creating
    these on the fly from a database call you throw it into a method /
    class and have that do all the work for you so all you have to do
    is pass the text to it and it resizes itself based on the example
    above.

  • How can I access the content of a textarea component?

    I'm trying to use a javascript form editor in my jsf project.
    The form editor writes to an html <textarea> component.
    The jsp page looks like this:
    <div style="height: 336px; left: 0px; top: 0px; position: absolute; width: 672px">
    <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
    tinyMCE.init({
    mode : "textareas",
    theme : "advanced",
    </script>
    <textarea cols="50" name="content" rows="15">This is some content that will be editable with TinyMCE.</textarea>
    </div>
    The content of the <textarea> component is changed with the editor.
    What I need to do is capture that content after it has been edited.
    How can I do that??
    Thanks

    I have a similar problem. When I try to watch the rented movie a pop up says "Cannot Open: The content is not authorized"     What exactly is the problem. I'm not in the US at the current moment. I'm in France. But that shouldn't be a problem right?

  • Get rid of predictive urls while hovering mouse over link in firefox 6

    I hate movement on my desktop as it is distracting. If something moves, it should need my attention. While hovering my cursor over URLs, I now see the URL in the lower left, and I can't stop that from showing.
    I don't need to proofread URLs, so there is NO reason to have that on my computer, it's highly distracting.
    How do I stop it? I've played with about:config for a while, but it seems there is no clear option to toggle off.
    I realize the status bar is gone, great, but again, there is no reason for me to proofread my URLs that I'm hovering over, so please, tell how to stop this distraction, thank you.

  • Mouse freezes for a short burst when mousing over links in Gmail?

    As the 'question' says. Gmail in IE doesn't exhibit this issue. My add-ons are Delicious, Xmarks, IBM CCK, Java Console, Java quick starter, and MS .net framework assistant. No themes. Seems to line up with the latest Firefox release of 3.6.8.

    I fixed this problem. The problem was my Ipod being plugged into the computer. Every time the ipod was plugged in, firefox stuttered and lagged as stated. I noticed when I had my ipod unplugged for a while to use another usb device, firefox was fixed, I thought it was the update that week that fixed it. Couple days later I plugged my Ipod back in, problem returned. But, ever since I started charging my ipod elsewhere, the problem has disappeared. So, anyone still having this problem, check to see if you have an ipod, iphone, or another usb storage device plugged in.

  • "Confetti" appears in Firefox, animates with mouse movement over links. What's the problem?

    There are bits of "confetti" that appear all over the Firefox window and change positions/color/shape whenever something on the window changes or is animated (mousing over links, allowing a cursor to blink, active video in the window.) Colors vary from blues, brown, purple, pink, and reds.
    I've noticed that this problem does not replicate in other web browsers (others being IE and Chrome). I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but that does not appear to solve the problem.
    This problem only occurred after watching "The Daily Show" today and has been persistent since, even on other websites with video. (Sorry John Oliver, I wish it was something else.) However, there are no "confetti" effects if I activate the video to full screen.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    Weird display artifacts immediately make me think of possible graphic driver incompatibilities. Not sure why results would differ between embedded Flash and full screen, but... I suggest disabling hardware graphics acceleration in Firefox and, if that doesn't help, in Flash.
    (A) In Firefox, un-check the box here and restart:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    (B) In Flash, see this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
    Any improvement?

  • Does Flash Engine supports "Mouse Over" events on an Android device with a mouse?

    We built our custome Android on a Beagle Board. When we play a Flash content on WebKit, the flash does not respond to mouse over events.
    When mouse pointer comes on an object with mouse over effect, nothing happends.
    Can you confirm that there is Mouse Over support in Android 2.2 Flash Engine?
    Thanks in Advance

    Thanks for the link. Im just stuck on one issue right now. I
    quickly noticed that the samples make use of mx.transitions.easing
    as seen in the script below. How does Flash 8 address this?
    myButton_btn.onRelease = function() {
    tweenBall(mx.transitions.easing.Bounce.easeOut);
    function tweenBall(easeType) {
    var begin = 20;
    var end = 380;
    var time = 20;
    var mc = ball_mc;
    ballTween = new mx.transitions.Tween(mc, "_x", easeType,
    begin, end, time);
