Hi, Chris. The simplest change to your file to make it do what you ask (i.e., click the 9th item and it unchecks the 3rd and 4th checkbox), is to put
id="cb" on the CheckBox tag and change its click handler to click="cb[0][2].selected=false; cb[0][3].selected=false" This isn't very elegant, as it directly references the third and fourth checkboxes rather than manipulating the underlying dataProvider and having the checkboxes indirectly update, but -- hey -- you're in a hurry to get a demo working. The key thing here is that repeated instances of an object are addressed using array notation. So the first five checkboxes are cb[0][0] through cb[0][4] and the second five are cb[1][0] through cb[1][4]. Your code with my modification is below. I look forward to a seeing a purchase order soon from you. You can also send an MP3 of you squealing. :) - Gordon <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application width="100%" height="100%" xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"; xmlns="*"> <mx:Model id="optionModel"> <options category="Category One"> <option selectionState="false" number="C1 - option one"/> <option selectionState="true" number="C1 - option two"/> <option selectionState="true" number="C1 - option three"/> <option selectionState="true" number="C1 - option four"/> <option selectionState="true" number="C1 - option five"/> </options> <options category="Category Two"> <option selectionState="true" number="option one"/> <option selectionState="true" number="option two"/> <option selectionState="true" number="option three"/> <option selectionState="true" number="option four"/> <option selectionState="true" number="option five"/> </options> </mx:Model> <mx:VBox id="formBox" width="400" height="400" marginTop="5" marginLeft="5" backgroundColor="#FFFFFF"> <!-- <mx:DataGrid dataProvider="{optionsArray}"/> --> <mx:Repeater id="rOptionCats" dataProvider="{optionModel.options}"> <mx:Label text="{rOptionCats.currentItem.category}" fontSize="14" fontWeight="bold"/> <mx:Repeater id="rOptions" dataProvider="{rOptionCats.currentItem.option}"> <mx:HBox marginLeft="15"> <mx:CheckBox id="cb" width="5%" selected="{rOptions.currentItem.selectionState}" click="cb[0][2].selected=false; cb[0][3].selected=false"/> <mx:Label text="{rOptions.currentItem.number}"/> </mx:HBox> </mx:Repeater> </mx:Repeater> </mx:VBox> <!-- <Inspect/> --> </mx:Application> -----Original Message----- From: Chris Phillips [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 28, 2005 8:14 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Repeater Trouble STILL NEED HELP Matt, What I have is a display that has nested repeaters that create a form. The form is bound to an array of options. But the options are interconnected. So, when someone clicks one I might need to unselect others. But if I do this by completely refreshing the dataprovider, I get this half second of blank screen while it redraws. I want to be able to update the checkboxes individually through the dataprovider or through some other voodoo so that my screen will not go blank. My bosses big pitch to everyone is "Hey we can have a more desktop app like tool here. We don't have to have these ugly html total screen refreshes..." If you can show me an example with the file that I sent where you click the 9th item and it unchecks the 3rd and 4th checkbox, I will squeel like a little girl. And we'll buy the Flex server.
