flash actionscript: I have a comboBox problem.
Here is my code:
// myComboBox setup
myComboBox1.addItem("Austria", "Austria");
// myComboBox Playhead
// whe an intem is selected
listenerObject.change = function() {
var my_item = myComboBox1.selectedItem;
trace(my_item.label);
trace(my_item.data);
// go to the specified frame
gotoAndPlay(my_item.data);
}
The problem is that this is not working. All I want to do is make the comboBox
listen to the users input and and go to the selected frame of that movie.
Example:
If user selects "xyz" from the comboBox the user should be taken to the frame
that "xyz" relates to. "xyz" = frame "_xyz".
I can't seem to figure this one out with AS 1.0. Everyone seems to only know
how to do this in AS 2.0 or the only references I can find (such as tutorials
and books) use buttons. I'm not using buttons...so that creates a problem.

Any help would be much appriciated. :)

try something like (where cbox is the instance name
of the combobox component ) -

aLabels = ["Select","Ties","Tops","Jeans","Belts"];
aData = ["","tie","top","jean","belt"];

iList = new Array();
for (var ii=0; ii<aLabels.length; ii++) {
myItem = new Object();
myItem.label = aLabels[ ii ];
myItem.data = aData[ ii ];
iList[ ii ] = myItem;
}

cbox.setDataProvider(iList);
cbox.setChangeHandler("cb1");

cb1 = function(combo){
theLabel = combo.getSelectedItem().label;
theData = combo.getSelectedItem().data;
trace(theLabel);
trace(theData);
_root.gotoAndStop(theData);
};
