public function createTabList():void {
for each (var node:XML in _paraSightDataset.tab) {
var newItem:Object = new Object();
newItem.tabLabel = [EMAIL PROTECTED]();
newItem.name = newItem.tabLabel;
tabArray.addItem(newItem);
}
myTabBar.dataProvider = tabArray;
}
private function
traceDisplayList(container:DisplayObjectContainer,indentString:String =

{
var child:DisplayObject;
for (var i:uint=0; i < container.numChildren; i++)
{
child = container.getChildAt(i);
trace(indentString, child, child.name);
if (container.getChildAt(i) is DisplayObjectContainer)
{
traceDisplayList(DisplayObjectContainer(child),
indentString + " ")
}
}
}
traceDisplayList(myTabBar);
