Generally Arrays for which the data is changing should not be used for
binding since Flex will NOT be able to determine when Array data has
changed.
Now, for your issue there are two different solutions:
1. Use an ArrayCollection instead of an Array for you "ta" Array variable
2. Have a temporary Array inside your createTimeArray which you use to
push data into, and then at the very end of your "createTimeArray"
function assign the temporary Array to your "ta" Array variable. Flex
will be able to pick up that the "ta" has changed and trigger the
binding, it's just not able to detect when Array data INSIDE "ta" has
changed.
