Another idea is to be able to generate new or modify existing template that
can look like this:
<fx:Declarations>
<s:RadioButtonGroup id="cardtype"/>
</fx:Declarations>
<s:HGroup>
<s:RadioButton group="{cardtype}"
id="americanExpress"
label="American Express"
width="150"/>
<s:RadioButton group="{cardtype}"
id="masterCard"
label="MasterCard"
width="150"/>
</s:HGroup>
All I will need to do is to change "cardtype" to some unique name for every
RadioButtonGroup being added at the run time.
Is something like this possible?
