RE: [flexcoders] Re: Strange thing happening with Flex 2 Beta 3 (eclipse plugin) - possible bug?

I missed your original post, but this does look like a bug. The player doesn’t seem to know what to do with the empty String tag. When I place anything in that first String tag (in addition to or instead of the empty space) the problem goes away.   This works:   <mx:ComboBox width="150" id="comboSearchType" > <mx:dataProvider>                  <mx:Array>                      <mx:String>Select...</mx:String>                      <mx:String>Basic Info</mx:String>                      <mx:String>VM-Detail</mx:String>                      <mx:String>Paging</mx:String>                      <mx:String>TechData</mx:String>                      <mx:String>Simple Freedom</mx:String>                      <mx:String>SID</mx:String>                  </mx:Array>              </mx:dataProvider>   This doesn’t work:   <mx:ComboBox width="150" id="comboSearchType" > <mx:dataProvider>                  <mx:Array>                      <mx:String> </mx:String>                      <mx:String>Basic Info</mx:String>                      <mx:String>VM-Detail</mx:String>                      <mx:String>Paging</mx:String>                      <mx:String>TechData</mx:String>                      <mx:String>Simple Freedom</mx:String>                      <mx:String>SID</mx:String>                  </mx:Array>              </mx:dataProvider>     From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Greg Morphis Sent: Wednesday, May 24, 2006 10:20 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Strange thing happening with Flex 2 Beta 3 (eclipse plugin) - possible bug?   I changed it to using actionscript to populate the comboBox and all is well.. Still don't know what caused the below issue but it's corrected.
