You can use an Object to store name/value pairs for your created
components, rather than an Array. For example, if you do
// Any other method in this class can access the radio buttons using
this Object.
private var radioButtons:Object = {};
private function createRadioButtons():void
{
for (var i:int = 0; i < ...; i++)
{
var rb:RadioButton = new RadioButton();
// set properties, styles, and event handlers on rb
radioButtons[radioButtonNames[i]] = rb;
}
}
you can later access them as radioButtons["myButton"] (or
radioButtons.myButton), etc.

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: dynamically created access and event elements
problem and
Thanks again :)
I understand referencing by array,
but isn't it possible to reference by dynamiclly created name
like in flash you can use name to create movieclip
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("name", 1000)
and then
name or _root["name"] can be use as reference
another question is
how I can pass variable via event
basiclly if I have array of elements then I would like to pass array
position of element in array so I can determine if it's left or right
checkbox so I can keep only one of two checkboxes selected
if I could add variables to elements that would be good
like I can do in flash with movieclips mc.number = i
or that need extending checkbox class ?
thanks in advance
