How is your edit button embedded in the column, are you using a Cell Renderer? When I have done something similar using a CellRenderer I made the CellRenderer dispatch an event (actually from the Datagrid), which contained the cell's row and column. This way in my class containing the Datagri

The decimal equivalent of octal 11, in the same way that trace(Number("0x33")) returns 51. So Karthik's statement should just be revised to say that Number is suitable and correct if the aim is to convert/cast a string representation of a decimal number into that decimal number. Helen Ron

Jason, I was able to convert the data from XML using parseInt() yesterday, and today I learned that to get information into a usable string I needed to use .nodeValue. both of these methods are taking considerable time to code for every variable. Is there a more efficient way to get everythin

That does seem strange. My first thought would be that there might be some white space characters around the string in the XML. Try: trace(":" + _root.country + ":"); Or to remove the change that it's messing up somewhere between assigning to _root, try: trace(":" + myXML.firstChild.childNodes[4

and you want to add something between the content and the footer, then just add it in between: buildHeader(); buildContent(); buildMoreContent(); buildFooter(); Guess where the new stuff ends up? No figuring out what depth to assign, no re-assigning depths, no collisions. Nice and simple.
