RE: [flexcoders] How to access control attributes inside a repeater
Hi, Hari. Does the indexing of the id make sense to you? I designed the Repeater so I'm curious whether you were expecting it to work a different way. - Gordon From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Doodi, Hari - BLS CTR Sent: Thursday, October 27, 2005 10:24 AM To: 'flexcoders@yahoogroups.com' Subject: RE: [flexcoders] How to access control attributes inside a repeater Hi All, Thanks to all who put a thought about it. I was advised to id the component which is repeated and use that id in action script to access the controls attributes in each instance. Once again thanks to all. Thanks!

RE: [flexcoders] How to access control attributes inside a repeater
I cant believe I am actually
answering a question here.
What does department.xml look like? If
your XML is like this for example:
dashboard
menu
button
label=Help/
dropDowns
dropDown
label=Site Location:
item
label=AFDW/
You should be able to just add the next node
name after the currentItem, like this:
mx:Repeater id=r2 dataProvider={dataService.result.dashboard.menu.dropDowns.dropDown} startingIndex=0
mx:Text text={r2.currentItem.label} textAlign=right/
