RE: [flexcoders] F2 Alpha: Repeaters and dynamic HTML text?

Mon, 24 Oct 2005 13:17:59 -0700

OK – thanks Ashish, getting closer.  However, the text drops down and to the right from the bullet, and the bullet is completely snug at the far and upper left. 

 

When rendered as straight HTML it doesn’t do this.  i.e.

 

<mx:Text>

      <mx:htmlText>

            <![CDATA[<img src=''/>Test HTML Text]]>

      </mx:htmlText>

</mx:Text>

 

That positions the text and graphic completely different.

 

See the differences here: http://cmt.icfconsulting.com/temp/AFDW/AFDWTOC.html

 

Any ideas?  Thanks.

Wrap your Image and Text tag in HBox inside Repeater.

Subject: [flexcoders] F2 Alpha: Repeaters and dynamic HTML text?

Full of questions today.  So using Flexbuilder 2 Alpha, I want to use a repeater to show text, and so this works fine:

 

<mx:Repeater id="CMMetricsTextRepeater"

dataProvider="{dataService.result.dashboard.categories.category}">

<mx:Image source="@Embed('assets/bullet.gif')" />

      <mx:Text text="{CMMetricsTextRepeater.currentItem.label}"/>

</mx:Repeater>

 

However, I want that bullet graphic to appear next to the text, but it doesn’t – the bullet appears, but the text that follows drops to the next line.  So, I thought I would try HTML text, but I’m not sure how to use the dynamic data of a repeater since the text is supposed to be enclosed in a CDATA tag.  For example, this does not work:

 

<mx:Repeater id="CMMetricsTextRepeater"

dataProvider="{dataService.result.dashboard.categories.category}">

        <mx:htmlText>

            <![CDATA[<img src=''/>

            {CMMetricsTextRepeater.currentItem.label}

            ]]>

        </mx:htmlText>

</mx:Repeater>

 

What happens is the {CMMetricsTextRepeater.currentItem.label} is shown literally since its in the CDATA tag. How do I use repeaters and dynamic HTML text?  Do I *have* to use Actionscript for this?  If so, how?  Thanks.
