you have perfectly reason!!! thanks a lot...
can i pose you the last question? i've an array collection like this (written completely from as3!!) <mx:Array> <mx:Object monday="23" tuesday="45" /> <mx:Object monday="33" tuesday="90" /> <mx:Object monday="13" tuesday="15" /> </mx:Array> can i access fields names (monday for example) and values (23 for example) from as3 with a for cycle? how can i do this? for example i would print monday 23 tuesday 45 and so on... thanks again..you are right! --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Haykel BEN JEMIA" <hayke...@...> wrote: > > The panel that fired the event is e.target!
