i have an httpservice as a dataprovider for a combobox that outputs: <countries> <country label="USA" data="1"/> <country label="Canada" data="2"/> <country label="Mexico" data="3"/> </countries>
i want canada to be selected initially. i know you can use selectedIndex, but that will not work for me since i can only use the "data" field as reference. is there any way to pass "selected", like in an html form- something like: <country label="Canada" data="2" selected:true /> or is there any way to call something like: country.selected=2 and use the data reference? I tried selectedItem=2 (wich would've been great) but no success. I appreciate your help! thanks
