HTML from ActionScript BUG

Question

Keeping track of user actions in HTML from ActionScript
Document-level event listeners can be assigned to the
JavasScriptObject as illustrated in the example below, which traces
each DOM element in the HTML to receive an onmouseup event.
var doc:JavaScriptObject = event.currentTarget.domWindow;
doc.onmouseup = function():void
trace(arguments[0].srcElement);
on first mouse click does not work. It's a BUG???

Hi Golev,
Try registering the Document-level event listeners on the
"complete" event of <mx:HTML>, like the following full
example. Based on your description, it seems those events (such as
doc.onmouseup) are registered on the "click" event instead. If
that's the case, the events won't get registered until the 1st
click and consequently won't get fired until the 2nd click.
