[Flashcoders] trying to get data from list component

2011-05-26 Thread DONALD TALCOTT
I have a list component (multiple selection) on the stage. I am trying to send 
the selections from the list to sql database via php.
I'm using the script below to convert the data selected from the list to a 
string. The trace works as designed.
What do I send in my variables to php script? 
topskillsfield.selectedIndices is not working. topskillsfield is my list 
item.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

submitTwoBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, submitHandler);
 
function submitHandler(e:MouseEvent) {
var myArr:Array = topskillsfield.selectedIndices;
 
var selectedTopSkills:String = ;
 
for(var i:int = 0; i  myArr.length; i++) {
var j:int = myArr[i];
if(selectedTopSkills == ) {
selectedTopSkills = topskillsfield.getItemAt(j).data;
} else {
selectedTopSkills += ,  + 
topskillsfield.getItemAt(j).data;
}
}
 
trace(selectedTopSkills:  + selectedTopSkills);
}

my trace ouputs the following: selectedTopSkills: Written Communication,

When I use the following in my variables, the number of selections (5) is 
posted to db.
