So I'm building an application which contains lists of items that I want users to be able to filter, select some items, filter again, select some more items, etc.
However, when a selected item is filtered out, when the filter is removed, the item is no longer selected. Take the following example: http://www.it.dev.duke.edu/public/CheckBoxListTest/CheckBoxListTest.html select "Item 1" then filter for "Item 2"... don't select anything. Remove the filter now. Item 1 is no longer selected. But the label still says it is selected.. the label is bound to the {cboRatings.selectedIndices.length} property. In my test application I can't get it to work the way I want it to at all. In my real application, it works sometimes but not others. I thought maybe it was the CheckBoxList component that someone had written for me... or the CheckBoxListItemRenderer that was part of that component, but i'm finding the same problem in the above test application which only uses a simple, standard list component. If it makes any different, I'm compiling the application with Flex Builder 3 (beta 2). I've compiled it with the Flex 2.0.1 HF3 SDK and the latest Flex 3 beta SDK. Why doesn't the list remember what's selected? Doesn't the filter simply prevent an item from displaying? -- Rick Root Check out CFMBB, BlogCFM, ImageCFC, ImapCFC, CFFM, and more at www.opensourcecf.com
