PopupRenderSkin with radio buttons part 2

[RhettZufelt]

I have taken the snippets from here:
http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/47909-PopUpRendererSkin.mxml-with-Radio-Buttons?p=243845&posted=1#p...

and am trying to get a radio button on the bottom of my popup window that turns on/off thier respective label service.
Everything seems to be working fine as far as the radio buttons, but the infoWinClose_Handler is giving me some issues.  It works just fine for the first item/layer clicked on, however, if I get popup info from a "different" layer, I get reference to null object error when I close any other popup window (other than the first one I click on).

Here is what I've gotten so far (well, at least the portions I've added)  I have tried several "if" statements to try to get it to only change visibility if it was one of the "toggle" layers, and ignore the "other" popups so I don't get the null issues, but have had no luck.

I need it to close the layer that was toggled on when the widget is closed.  Would really be nice if it would close the toggled on layer when "switching" to a different layer as well.  This would probalby solve the null issues.

The code that determines which layer to load, toggle on and off, and whether or not to include the toggle buttons is working fine, only the on close function that I'm having issues with.

Any ideas?

Well, is working for the most part.

It appears as if it is somehow keeping a "list" of feature classes that I have "clicked on" as once I have clicked a feature from the "Buildings" layer, it will never execute the skin_preinitializeHandler event again if I click on any other features from the Buildings layer.  When i click on a feature from a layer the "first" time, it sends it through the preinitializeHandler, any subsequent clicks to "that layer" will not so I don't get my varialbes, etc. set.

Any idea how to "reset" the "list" of pre-clicked features so it goes through my "if" statements each time a feature is clicked?

(or, a better location for my if statements so that they do get evaluated every time I click a feature?)

Rhett,

   The skin_preinitializeHandler function only gets called at certain times in the code life cycle. If you want something to get evaluated every time something gets clicked than the place to put code is the commitProperties function.

Thanks Robert,

That is what I was looking for.
