[flexcoders] Strange List behaviour

[g_odds]

I am attempting to populate a List from Model filled by the result of
an HTTPService.  However, the list only shows one entry as "[object
Object], [object Object],..".  As far as I am aware that is the result
of a toString() on a collection.  But why is the List not using that
collection to populate itself properly (as I want it to, hehe).

Thanks in advance for any help.

The code:

...
    <mx:HTTPService 
        id="listService"
        url="..."
    />
    <mx:Model id="listData">
       {listService.lastResult.things.thing}
    </mx:Model>
    <mx:List
        id="list"
        dataProvider="{listData}"
        labelField="name"
    />
...


and the XML that results from the HTTPService send:

<things>
  <thing>
    <name>MyName</name>
    <value>MyValue</value>
  <thing>
  ...
<things>
