On Program Loading Event..?

Does anyone know what the onLoad() or similar Event is in Flex? I'm trying initialize, but no joy.

            protected function videoArea_initializeHandler(event:FlexEvent):void
        {
            var currentPosition:int = videoArea.verticalScrollPosition;
            if (currentPosition < 0)
            {
                left_button.visible = false;
                right_button.visible = true;
            }
        }

What are you trying to initialize? If you're asking for the Flex Parallel to OnLoad(); perhaps you should tell us where onLoad() comes from?

I strongly suggest reading up on the Flex Component LifeCycle.

You can do initalization in the constructor of a component. If using MXML, you might want to use the preinitialize event. Some folks also use creationComplete.

The best alternative for onLoad() in Flex would be creationComplete.

See this link (Adobe) and this link (MikaFlex) for more information about the event hierarchy.
