You may want to look at extending the ComboBox control and making it editable. Then somehow remove the button on the side.

Are you looking for something that extends the List control?

[flexcoders] Cairngorm 2 SequenceCommand issues
Hi, Here are 5 steps that lead to my issue. 1. The user types his username, password and clicks login. 2. The LoginEvent is dispatched with the user details. 3. The LoginCommand execute method is called and my Application Delegate calls the remote method on the server. 4. onResult callback is called when the data returns from the server and i set all the relevant Application model data. 5. The LoginCommand extends the SequenceCommand so that i can set the nextEvent property and call executeNextCommand method. The last point is where the problem lies. I have stepped through the code, the executeNextCommand gets called and so does the dispatchEvent (event) but it never executes the next command in the sequence. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!

[flexcoders] Re: Flex 2.0 Form validation
Try this...

xmlns="*">
http://localhost/xml/template/test.xml"; method="POST"
showBusyCursor="True">
{test1.text}
{test2.text}
What i have done here is when the change event is fired on the text1
TextInput the handleValid function is called. This checks to see if
the string is valid.
Let me know if this works,

[flexcoders] Flex & Cairngorm + ColdFusion + Framework?
I recently started building an application in Flex using the Cairngorm framework. The server side logic will come from ColdFusion but I was wondering if anyone implements any MVC style framework on the ColdFusion side? I have looked at a few and the Tartan framework has a lot of similarities with Cairngorm. Do you think it would be worth implementing an MVC framework on the server side like Tartan for instance?
