When and where are you calling the function that populates "districts"
This is a working example I put together based on you code below. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" creationComplete="init()"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ [Bindable] public var districts:Array; public function init():void{ var NumberOfDistricts:Number = new Number(4); var tempDistricts:Array = new Array (NumberOfDistricts); for (var i:Number = 0; i < NumberOfDistricts; i++){ tempDistricts[i] = ("June "+i); } districts = tempDistricts; trace(districts); } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:Panel maxWidth="135" width="25%" height="100%"> <mx:List id="districtList" dataProvider="{districts}" width="100" height="100%" resize="false" allowMultipleSelection="true" dragEnabled="true"/> </mx:Panel> </mx:Application> --- In [email protected], "jnewport" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Yes, districts is set to > > [Bindable] > public var districts:Array; > > j :) > > --- In [email protected], "Oscar" <oscar_cortes@> wrote: > > > > > > Did you declare districts as [Bindable]? > > > > > > > > --- In [email protected], "jnewport" <jason_newport@> > > wrote: > > > > > > Why is my list not being populated with the data in my array?
