Sure, that is reasonable.
You can also loop through the children of any container like this:
var n:Number = oContainer.numChildren;
for (var i:Number = 0; i < n; i++)
{
var cbxCur:CheckBox = oContainer.getChildAt(i);
sTemp += "\n" + cbxCur.selected;
}
Or, consider updating your save data structure on the change event of
each combo.
All those ways are fine.

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Can you Use a Repeater without a dataprovider?
Hi,
I wanted to use some looping mechanism so that I can process the
combo box's in a loop in my actionscript. When the user
clicks "save" I don't want to go have to check 4 differant combo box
id's to see what was selected, if I create them in a loop, I can
just loop through the results. For example
<mx:Repeater>
<mx:ComboBox id="cbox" dataProvider="{data)"/>
</mx:Repeater>
Then . . .
var results:Array = new Array();
for(i=0;i<repLength;i++){
var sel:String = cbox[i].selectedItem;
results.push(sel);
}
Instead of having identical code for four differant combo boxs with
4 differant id's, that I would then have to evaluate for the
selected Items 4 differant times.
