Dude, use a cellrenderer instead.

More examples in the Flash 8 help docs. The selectedItem doesn't show it
the icon, though, so I'll leave that as a challenge to you to figure out.

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Custom combobox
Hi Chris, thanks for the help by the way, i managed to get it working
like so:
myCombobox.addItem("Hello world");
myCombobox.dropdown.setPropertiesAt(0,{backgroundColor:0xCCCCCC,
icon:"image"});
The problem being that the "icon" image has to be in the library and
have a linkage id. Do you think there is any way to take this same
approach but use a dynamically loaded jpg for the icon?
