I am gonna try to manipulate it but I am very new to Flex. I want to be able to click on text and the pop up contain images and info. Any help would be greatly appreciated. For example, we are creating a web site about entertainment and when the user clicks on an event the pop up window will appear and the user will be able to see more detailed information about the specific event.

Your example hit error if you:-
i) Click the button to open the popup
ii) While the popup is still open, press ’space’ 2 times on your keyboard

To avoid that, you should add the setFocus() after PopupManager.centerPopup:-

PopUpManager.addPopUp(panel, this, true);
PopUpManager.centerPopUp(panel);
panel.setFocus();

Any idea what I am doing wrong? Thanks for any suggestions. Lulu Hi all,

The 3rd parameter in createPopUp or addPopUp is a boolean - by default it is false, which means the window will be non-modal, which allows you to interact with other windows besides the PopUp window. When it is set to true, the PopUp takes over - all other windows are disabled until the user has finished interacting with the PopUp and dismisses it. If you change this line:
PopUpManager.addPopUp(panel, this, true);

to
PopUpManager.addPopUp(panel, this, false);

or
PopUpManager.addPopUp(panel, this);
