macromedia flash flash remoting: Hi All,

I am using the calendar component to populate a listbox with a list of
available times from the database using DataGlue. I then try to select one of
these times from the list box to populate another list box with a list of other
choices drawn from the database. I tried to use the times_lb.getSelectedItems
to capture the times to send to the database but it is not working. Is this
because I populated the times_lb with using DataGlue. Is there another way of
populating the list box that better suits this sort of scenario.

I'd appreciate some help with this issue,

Thanks,

Anthony

Hey Cyril,

I was just going through your question and decided to do a little research on
the listbox component. It appears that the listbox component doesn't have a
method named as "getSelectedItems" as you said you were using. However it does
have a property that holds the same value "selectedItem" or "selectedItems" for
multiple items.

You might want to try passing this value (times_lb.selectedItem OR
times_lb.selectedItems) to the coldfusion component method that retrieves more
relevant data based on the the value of the selected time.

Im using Flash mx 2004 here, so i might be wrong about the methods listing if
you're using Flash MX. But try it out, it might just work.. if not :P post a
reply and i'll see if i can come up with something else.

Do check out this tutorial though:

Hope I've helped.

Thank you Night981 for replying to my post.

I am using Flash MX and the method is definitely "getSelectedItem". I
downloaded a trial version of Flash MX 2004 and I see the method has changed to
"SelectedItem" as you pointed out. The method is just not selecting the time
from the listbox so I can send it to the database. I might try and do the same
thing in Flash MX 2004.

Thank sagain for your help and your advice about where to find further help.
