You need to install the Debugger version of the Flash Player. You can
download it at http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html

I have had some issues installing Flash over previously installed versions.
The procedure I follow these days is to uninstall, reboot, install (make
sure you have your browsers closed so the plugins get installed properly).

[flexcoders] Multiple arrays?

2008-08-18 Thread smccran

Hi all,

I'm trying to produce a booking form, where users can select their 
seat. The seats are laid out in a square. I'm currently doing this 
with 4 arrays, one for each side of the square. This is proving very 
complicated tho, as I have a remote object from a cfc returning the 
results from all 4 arrays, and its proving a nightmare to map the 
results back to the images? (full code below.

Anyone have any thoughts on how they would approach this?

Thanks

2008-08-18 Thread Rob Kunkle





I'm not sure about the setup on windows, but there are a couple of  
steps that you have to take to configure flex builder for debugging.


A good resource of the steps you need to take is here:
http://blog.flexexamples.com/2007/08/26/debugging-flex-applications-with-mmcfg-and-flashlogtxt/



Create a file named mm.cfg in one of the following locations:

* Windows; C:\Documents and Settings\username\mm.cfg
* OSX; /Library/Application Support/Macromedia/mm.cfg
* Linux; home/username/mm.cfg

Open the newly created mm.cfg file in a text editor and add the  
following text:


ErrorReportingEnable=1
TraceOutputFileEnable=1

The flashlog.txt file will be created in the following location:

* Windows; C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data 
\Macromedia\Flash Player\Logs\flashlog.txt
* OSX; /Users/username/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash  
Player/Logs/flashlog.txt

* Linux; home/username/Macromedia/Flash_Player/Logs/flashlog.txt


Hope this helps!

Re: [flexcoders] Debugging with standalone Flex3 installation

The steps below (setting up the mm.cfg file) are only needed to have the
trace statements output to a external file, they're not needed to do
debugging otherwise.

If you need a captcha, it generally means that you communicate with a
server. You can generally use any captcha creation tool that works
with your server's technology.

As an example, we use PHP on the server side and for the captcha
generation we use a slightly modified version of this simple script:
http://www.white-hat-web-design.co.uk/articles/php-captcha.php
http://www.white-hat-web-design.co.uk/articles/php-captcha.php 

The modification we did is:
1. Add this line before the class declaration:
$font = realpath('monofont.ttf');

2. Remove this line:
var $font = 'monofont.ttf';

3. Add this to the beginning of the constructor:
global $font;

In the Flex application simply create an image control with the source
set to something like this:
CaptchaSecurityImages.php?width=100height=40characters=5

Hope it helps,
Haykel

I have got big problems deleting items from my managed collections:

When I delete item through ds.deleteItem and then call the ds.commit, 
after return from the commit operation my item is back in the 
ArrayCollection. The second time this item is deleted properly.

When I delete item through ac.removeItemAt the item is again restored by 
commit, but this time it is impossible to delete this item by the second 
call.

When I delete item from the collection and add another item into the 
same collection, the commit fails and the server returns error The item 
was not in the cache...

Does anyone know how to fix these problems? My items have to be

Although I agree that 16000 lines of code broken between only 7
classes certainly seems like a further break down of code into smaller
classes is necessary, I also believe that Adobe needs to kick it into
gear and come out with a patch ASAP that addresses the, from my

its a svn command. svn ignore path/path if I recall.subclipse should have
the functionality it built in, but since you have already committed that

its a pain once you have committed it.

RE: [flexcoders] Format XML

If your XML structure is the same a the Tree structure you want, then
you can format the Tree nodes using a custom Item renderer.  If you go
this route, find an example to modify, do not attempt to build it from
scratch.  I have an example on www.cflex.net http://www.cflex.net/ .

 

If your XML structure is different than what you want in the tree, you
have two options.  One, pre-process the XML into the format you want, or
two, create a custom tree item descriptor.

RE: {Disarmed} [flexcoders] Compare two XMLs

Yes, what complicates this is the question of how do you define
identical?

 

If the XML objects are in fact identical, you could do
xml1.toXMLString() == xml2.toXMLString()

 

But the two objects can be practically identical, and this compare can
be false.

 

Further, if some nodes are simply in a different order, would you still
consider the two objects identical?

Re: [flexcoders] Problem with Subclipse...

2008-08-18 Thread Nik Derewianka

The ignore option operates on a file/folder level in your working  
copy.  Right click on an item in the Flex Navigator pane, go down to  
the Team menu and then select Add to svn:ignore.

With regards to why something should be excluded - mainly because  
there is no point.  When you commit a source revision, it should  
contain everything needed to create the output binaries (source files,  
resources, compiler/project settings etc).  The only thing you gain by  
putting your output folders under version control is to have more  
stuff bloating up your repository.   Even more annoyingly, you will  
end up with a dirty working copy that gets committed where nothing has  
changed except that someone rebuilt the project - this clutters your  
history and forces other team members to do an update where non was  
needed.  This is not specific advice for Flex, this is pretty much  
given for any development environment under version control.

Nik

Re: [flexcoders] getChildByName using it to get the value of a textbox

2008-08-18 Thread Nik Derewianka



You need to cast it to the type of object you want to operate on:

var test:TextBox = this.getChildByName(inputtext + 1) as TextBox;

or

var test:TextBox = TextBox(this.getChildByName(inputtext + 1));

The first form will return null if it cannot cast the displayObject to  
that type as opposed to the second which will cause an error.

Of course the Eclipse help system is so utterly useless that searching  
for 'as' will return nothing and displayObject will not be in the

[flexcoders] LCDS vs FMIS for flex-based text chat

2008-08-18 Thread p smith

i am working with a team planning development on a new flex app. the app will

for video the architecture must include flash media interactive server (FMIS), 
so team members assume we will use FMIS for the text messaging.

i am wondering if livecycle data services (LCDS) might have any advantages over 
FMIS for text chat?

does anyone here have experience with both that they can comment on? or links

[flexcoders] Re: Multiple arrays?


Hi Shaun,

Last year I lead a project, for a major on-line ticket company, which is
currently being used to select and sell seats to sporting events.  The
approach used there, was to maintain all of the seats in a single array
(ArrayCollection).  Each seat has a unique id field; so that updating
the server and checking availability was simplified.  In order to know
where the seats were located, in relationship to each other, a reference
x/y point was used to position (draw) each individual seat.  This
reference point was contained in the data.  For each seat, a custom
UIComponent was drawn on the seat-map canvas; when the data was returned
from the server.  This allowed for easy manipulation of the seat's
state; for user interactions like mouse over and select.  This approach
also allows the client to easily customize the layout of the seat-maps;
in a wysiwyg venue builder application.  Hope that this gives you some
ideas.

[flexcoders] Re: Access column chart items


Hi there,

Your question is a little vague; concerning the use-case.  But, this
might help get you moving in the right direction:

import mx.charts.events.ChartItemEvent;

private function selectItem(e:ChartItemEvent) : void
{
 myTextArea.text = e.hitData.item.myField.toString();
}

mx:ColumnChart itemClick=selectItem(event)

[flexcoders] Re: Namespace issue displaying xml in Tree


Hi Amanda,

I usually just strip out the namespace junk; when the result is
returned.  Something like:

public function onResult(event: * = null) : void
{
  var myXML : XML = event.result as XML;
  model.myXML = new
XML(myXML.toXMLString().replace(xmlns:ns2=http://service.xxx.xx.xx.xx.\
xx.xx/,))
}

You would probably want to get rid of all of the ns2: stuff as well;
using a RegEx replace.  Just one approach.

  I am trying to display xml data in a tree but can't get the xml to
  correctly populate the Tree because of the namespace in front of
 the

  Here is the xml I am getting back:
  ns2:getProductsResponse

  product ns2:name=CYCLONE
  ns2:link=WEATHER.ANALYSES.CYCLONE/
  /product
  /product
  /return
  /ns2:getProductsResponse
 
  The tree is defined (I have tried both @name and @ns2:name):
 
  mx:Tree id=Tree width=100% height=100%
  labelField=@name
  change=treeChanged(event)
  themeColor=#99

  folderOpenIcon=@Embed(source='images/marble.png')
  defaultLeafIcon=@Embed(source='images/marble.png')

  Here is my code to get the xml:
 
  public function getProductsResult(resultObj:Object):void

  private var ns2:Namespace = new Namespace

  default xml namespace = ns2;
  var xml:XMLListCollection = new XMLListCollection(new XMLList
  (resultObj.result));
  var productsXML:XMLListCollection = new XMLListCollection
 (xml.children

  }
 
  productsXML contains everything under the ns2:getProductsResponse
  element.
 
  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

RE: [flexcoders] warning: unable to bind to property 'XXX' on class 'XML' (class is not an IEventDispatcher)

That warning is confusing.  It occurs because the selectedItem
property(or whatever property you are accessing) is an Object, and
Object does not support binding.  The confusion is because it implies
that XML does not support binding, while it definitely does.

 The fix is to cast/convert selectedItem to XML:

mx:Label text={XML(cmbCategories.selectedItem).categoryid} /

The warning will go away.

[flexcoders] Accessing form elements with cairngrom

Hi,

I am using cairngrom framework with flex 3 and i need to access form
fields or combo boxes from the results function in the command file. I
imported my view and created an instance which i am able to access the
properties a but no results show up.

I am very curious about this solution.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Multiple arrays?

And as Amy points out, Repeater can use the x,y coordinates to draw the seat 
components in their correct positions, without the weight of the Grid container.

 

An pay attention to what Tim says:  For each seat, a custom UIComponent. Do 
that, do not attempt to code the repeated elements in line.  Pass a reference 
to the entire currentItem into that component and let it set its position.

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Multiple arrays?

 

Hi Shaun,

Last year I lead a project, for a major on-line ticket company, which is 
currently being used to select and sell seats to sporting events.  The approach 
used there, was to maintain all of the seats in a single array 
(ArrayCollection).  Each seat has a unique id field; so that updating the 
server and checking availability was simplified.  In order to know where the 
seats were located, in relationship to each other, a reference x/y point was 
used to position (draw) each individual seat.  This reference point was 
contained in the data.  For each seat, a custom UIComponent was drawn on the 
seat-map canvas; when the data was returned from the server.  This allowed for 
easy manipulation of the seat's state; for user interactions like mouse over 
and select.  This approach also allows the client to easily customize the 
layout of the seat-maps; in a wysiwyg venue builder application.  Hope that 
this gives you some ideas.

[flexcoders] Accordion Header renderer layout help

2008-08-18 Thread nathanpdaniel

I'm trying to create an Accordion Header Renderer component (extends 
Button, implements IDataRenderer) - when I add children to 
the createChildren method - it places them below (maybe behind is a 
better term) the actual header itself.  
I'm attempting to add another button and set the hitArea for the header 
to that button (I want the user to have to click the Button to navigate 
the Accordion rather than being able to click the entire header).  I 
also want to add some other textual elements, those always end up not 
visible either.  Anyone have any idea how to accomplish this? :D

about printing charts? If you could pass along some links to read more

PDF creation - Is it possible to create a pdf directly from the

Goggle Analytics, you can create a PDF report containing all the data
and charts displayed online. Nothing complex here, simple plain
reports full justified, center aligned - the way the business folk

Before anyone else asks (!), is it basically an SDK update, and is it

It's just that I'm right on the edge of a release, so I'm slightly

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Identifying row index relative to node vs. ADG - childIndex() fails.

2008-08-18 Thread Adrian Williams


Hi Amy,

   I've tried your suggestion and am having a problem...

   The childIndex() method is not available to my object...and I have 
tried it both with my drag event as well as my ADG with negative results 
(errors). 


   Here is the function that this lives in:
  
   private function dropHandler(event:DragEvent):void

   {
   var endIndex:int = event.currentTarget.selectedIndex;
   alert.info(Index is: + endIndex);
   .

   .
   .

   When I replace
   var endIndex:int = event.currentTarget.selectedIndex;
  
   with

  var endIndex:int = event.currentTarget.selectedItem.childIndex();

   I get -- TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no 
properties.


   When I try accessing the actual ADG to attempt to get the position
 
   var endIndex:int = 
currentSubgroups.selectedItem.childIndex();


   I get the very same error. 


   Additionally, I've also tried:

   var endIndex:int = 
currentSubgroups.dataProvider.selectedItem.childIndex();


   which gets me -- ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property selectedItem

 Hi all,

 I am using an ADG in tree mode on a flat array. Everything

index
 value (display order). I.E. The 1st node of the ADG is collapsed.
The
 2nd node is expanded. The 5th row in the 2nd node gets dragged and
 dropped to the 3rd row of the same node. The 3rd row then becomes

[flexcoders] ItemRenderer returns empty Object instead of encapsuled data.

2008-08-18 Thread florian.salihovic

I have two instances of mx:controls::List. Both use the same ItemRenderer. A 
TypeError 
occours, when i drop one item from one List into the other List. Instead of the 
encapsuled 
type (an instance of an interface, typed to the interface) just an empty 
Ombject instance is 
returned.

I implement mx.core.IDataRenderer, 
mx.controls.listClasses.IDropInListItemRenderer and 
mx.controls.listClasses.IListItemRenderer in my component. Here is the code for 
the 
overwritten data and listData Propertys:

private var _item:IPlayListItem;
private var _listData:BaseListData;

[Bindable(dataChange)]
override public function get data():Object {
return this._item;
}

[Bindable(dataChange)]
public function get listData():BaseListData {
return this._listData
}

override public function set data(value:Object):void {
trace(ListItemRenderer.data: +value);
super.data = value;
if (!value) {
return;
}
if (this._item == value) {
return;
}
if (value is IPlayListItem) {
super.data = IPlayListItem(value);
this._item = IPlayListItem(value);
}
this.dispatchEvent(new FlexEvent(FlexEvent.DATA_CHANGE));

public function set listData(value:BaseListData):void {

[flexcoders] flex_sdk_3.1.0.2710 works with flexBuilder?

2008-08-18 Thread Paolo Bernardini

dose flex_sdk_3.1.0.2710 works with flexBuilder?
after installing flex_sdk_3.1.0.2710, and setting it as the default sdk I
compiled some old projects that I have, and it works fine, then I tried to

Even when you type import flash. it only sees errors package.

Hi Amy,

I've tried your suggestion and am having a problem...

The childIndex() method is not available to my object...and I have
tried it both with my drag event as well as my ADG with negative results
(errors).  

Here is the function that this lives in:

private function dropHandler(event:DragEvent):void
{
var endIndex:int = event.currentTarget.selectedIndex;
alert.info(Index is: + endIndex); 
.
.
.

When I replace 
var endIndex:int = event.currentTarget.selectedIndex;

with
   var endIndex:int = event.currentTarget.selectedItem.childIndex();

I get -- TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no
properties.

When I try accessing the actual ADG to attempt to get the position
   
var endIndex:int =
currentSubgroups.selectedItem.childIndex();

I get the very same error.  

Additionally, I've also tried:

var endIndex:int =
currentSubgroups.dataProvider.selectedItem.childIndex();

which gets me -- ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property selectedItem
not found on mx.collections.HierarchicalCollectionView and there is no
default value.

From what little I have been able to find on the net for

[flexcoders] Re: LCDS: data management and limited access

2008-08-18 Thread aglosband

Hi Zdenek, 
I did some testing of the whitelist/blacklist settings in LCDS 2.6 
this morning and as far as I can tell they are working as expected. 
Can you send me both your channel/endpoint settings from services-
config.xml and your destination settings from data-management-
config.xml so that I can look them over? It sounds like possibly 
your whitelist/blacklist settings are preventing the connection to 
the endpoint over RTMP but you are falling back to another endpoint 
that does not have the whitelist/blacklist settings. It is also 
possible that there is a bug but I need to see your settings to 
confirm that. Have you tried turning on Debug level logging in your 
services-config.xml file? If you set up a filter pattern of 
Endpoint.* you should be able to tell in the server console log 
which endpoint you are actually connecting over. Please take a look 
at this also and let me know if it is in fact the RTMP channel that 
you are connecting over. Thanks.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: getChildByName using it to get the value of a textbox

2008-08-18 Thread Nik Derewianka

That #1009 error means that it returned a null from the first line  
because it couldn't find the child with that name.   getChildByName is  
not recursive so you need to be mindful of the nesting of your  
requested object.


The following app has the functionality working as you need it, but it  
also has a really handy listing function that displays all of the  
current children recursively (outputs to the console window in Flex,  
if you have the debug player) so that you can see the children that  
are present and how they are nested.

[flexcoders] Re: Accessing form elements with cairngrom

2008-08-18 Thread gabriela.perry

If I understood you, you want to access the views children from the
execute method, is it?
If so, you should add a property for this view (propably a Container
subclass) in the event that's mapped to this control on the controler.
The controler class has an initialize method which does this mapping
(command / event).
Then, in your command, you just have to access the event property, like:
var myView:MyTYpe=e.myEventProperty as MyType

Hope it helps.

[flexcoders] Repaint screen

2008-08-18 Thread markgoldin_2000


I have a complex screen that consists of a number of DGs shown side by
side that creates an illusion of a single very wide DataGrid. The users
are able to select a row in one of the DG and all grids will have the
same row highlighted.

I am using this as a custom item renderer:

public class blockItemRenderer extends Label implements
IDropInListItemRenderer

Here is code that does on or off depending on data conditions:

override protected function updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number,
unscaledHeight:Number):void

{

super.updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);

var grid1:DataGrid = DataGrid(DataGridListData(listData).owner);

if (grid1.isItemSelected(data))

{

if (g == null)

{

g = graphics;

storeBackgroundCell = getStyle(backgroundColor);

}

if (data.trainplan == true)

{

g.clear();

g.beginFill(0xe1dc4d);

g.drawRect(0, 0, unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight + 1);

g.endFill();

}

else

{

g.clear();

}

}

}

Here is code that basically triggers the updateDisplayList:

DataGrid(DGObject).selectedIndex = selectedIndex;

DataGrid(DGObject).dataProvider[selectedIndex].trainplan = addToPlan;

So far so good, it works fine.

But now the users want to save screen. Another words they wont to be
able to bring a scrren copy back with all the highlights they have made
before they save the screen.  Since everything is data driven I am
saving the whole xml that is used to build the screen in the first palce
to a database and simply send it back when they request a copy.
Unfortunatelly no hightlight cells are shown when a screen copy is
loaded.

I am trying to force the updateDisplayList by doing this:

override public function set dataProvider(value:Object):void

{

super.dataProvider = value;

if(dataProvider != null  value != null  dataProvider is
ICollectionView)

{

var cursor:IViewCursor =

(dataProvider as ICollectionView).createCursor();

var cnt:int = 0;

while (!cursor.afterLast)

{

if (cursor.current.trainplan == true  listData != null)

{

DataGrid(listData.owner).selectedIndex = cnt;

Alert.show(cnt.toString());

}

cnt++;

cursor.moveNext();

}

}

}

But the Alert box is not even popping up I think because listData is
null.

Any idea that might help?

 That #1009 error means that it returned a null from the first line
 because it couldn't find the child with that name.   getChildByName is
 not recursive so you need to be mindful of the nesting of your
 requested object.

 The following app has the functionality working as you need it, but it
 also has a really handy listing function that displays all of the
 current children recursively (outputs to the console window in Flex,
 if you have the debug player) so that you can see the children that
 are present and how they are nested.

[flexcoders] Problems running Flex app on an OLPC

2008-08-18 Thread Paul Cezanne

Hello

I'm having a bit of a newbie problem understanding exactly how I can  
get our Flex application running on our Unix machine. I'm not the flex  
coder, but I'm the Unix guy, so getting it running is up to me.

The issue is that our Unix machine is an OLPC XO machine. (See  
laptop.org if you're not familiar with it.)

I can get our application on the XO without any problems, I can unzip  
and I see the .swf file. I'm just not sure how I'm supposed to LAUNCH  
the .swf file.

I tried downloading and installing the AIR runtime, that seemed to go  
ok but the docs say that the runtime should be in /opt/Adode AIR/ and  
that folder is empty.

I've tried opening it in Browse (the XO's web browser) and I do get a  
click to play text link but clicking it doesn't do anything.

I've read that I can launch it by running adl from the command line  
but I don't see how to get adl on my system without having the user  
install the SDK and it isn't clear to me that I'm allowed to  
distribute Adobe's SDK anyhow

Note: The self installer works fine under Windows (well, not 100%  
happy with Vista) and we can get it running under OS X, so we know  
that the app itself is fine.

I think I'm just missing some tiny point about installation, I'd love  
it if someone could point it out to me. Thank you.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: LCDS 2.6 + Hibernate: problem deleting items

2008-08-18 Thread Jeff Vroom

If you could send me the server debug log with Message.* and Service.* enable I 
could tell what is happening.   I've seen this type of behavior in the past, 
but only when some query or something was holding onto a cached copy of the 
deleted item.   After the item gets deleted, we could be refreshing a query or 
something and then seeing that cached item and thinking it needs to get added 
back to the collection.

If I recall correctly though, you are using the hibernate assembler which 
shouldn't be caching queries - unless maybe you have turned on the cached 
queries option or maybe have customized the assembler?

Another possibility is that you might have a bi-directional association 
involving this item and you are not removing the item from both sides of the 
relationship.

More details to first issue (delete item with ds.deleteItem):

The item is in fact deleted from the database, just the display in my
application is wrong - when I restart application, the deleted item is
really deleted.

In client log (in Flex Builder) there are following lines after commit:

Updating cached item for: Parent#:#254 excluding properties: null
Adding item to cache: ChildItem#:#272 destination: ChildDestination
About to dispatch commit result events

where 272 is the id of the item I am trying to delete.

TIA for any help.

 When I delete item from the collection and add another item into the

 Does anyone know how to fix these problems? My items have to be

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Identifying row index relative to node vs. ADG - data source info.

2008-08-18 Thread Adrian Williams







Ahh, yes...that would
help...here is the construction for the ADG dataProvider. I am making
a web service call to our .NET backend to grab the data set. This
function is the result handler that builds the array for the ADG.

 private function
groupedParticipantsResult(event:ResultEvent):void
 {
  groupedParticipantsArray = event.result as
ArrayCollection;
  
  var gc:GroupingCollection = new GroupingCollection();
  gc.source = groupedParticipantsArray;
  
  var g:Grouping = new Grouping();
  gc.grouping = g;
  g.fields = [new GroupingField("Name")];
  gc.refresh();
  currentSubgroups.dataProvider = gc;

Identifying row index relative to node vs. ADG - childIndex() fails.
  
  
  
  
  
  Hi Amy,
  
 I've tried your suggestion and am having a problem...
  
 The childIndex() method is not available to my object...and
I have tried it both with my drag event as well as my ADG with negative
results
(errors). 
  
 Here is the function that this lives in:
 
 private
function dropHandler(event:DragEvent):void
 {
  
var endIndex:int = event.currentTarget.selectedIndex;
  
alert.info("Index is:" +
endIndex);  
   .
   .
   .
  
 When I replace 
  var endIndex:int = event.currentTarget.selectedIndex;
 
 with
  var endIndex:int = event.currentTarget.selectedItem.childIndex();
  
 I get -- TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and
has no properties.
  
 When I try accessing the actual ADG to attempt to get the
position
  
 
 var endIndex:int = currentSubgroups.selectedItem.childIndex();
  
 I get the very same error. 
  
 Additionally, I've also tried:
  
  
var endIndex:int = currentSubgroups.dataProvider.selectedItem.childIndex();
  
 which gets me -- ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property
selectedItem not found on mx.collections.HierarchicalCollectionView
and there is no default value.
  
 From what little I have been able to find on the net for
documentation on the childIndex() method, it all seems to be using an
XML data
set. Is that part of the problem here...that I am not using an XML
dataset or am I mis-applying this method?
  
Thanks,
  Adrian

 Hi all,
 
 I have a challenge
 
 I am using an ADG in tree mode on a flat array. Everything 
looks 
 great. One of the requirements is that whenever a user wants to 
 rearrange the order of the rows under a node, I have to store that

index 
 value (display order). I.E. The 1st node of the ADG is collapsed. 
The 
 2nd node is expanded. The 5th row in the 2nd node gets dragged and

 dropped to the 3rd row of the same node. The 3rd row then becomes 
the 
 4th and the 4th then becomes the 5th. The actual drag and drop 
functions 
 work beautifully. The problem comes into play when I try to 
identify 
 the begin index and the end index for the row that was manipulated.
 
 When I use:
 
 var beginIndex:int = event.currentTarget.selectedIndex;

selectedItem.childIndex();

HTH;
