How can I manage combobox in flash?

Asked By Kimberly Walker 60 points N/A Posted on - 02/27/2013

Hi Everybody

I am attempting to put few data into my DataBase from two Combo Boxes in Flash.

But I am not able to manage combo box in flash.

I don’t have any idea that how to assign a “var” value to combo box like we give for a usual textfield.

I have additional pages where I have usual text fields that work well as I can identify the “var” value in the properties however not for combo boxes.

Can somebody help me how to fix it?

Thanks in advance

How can I manage combobox in flash?

Hello , Kimberly

Hope you are fine. I think I can give you a solution.

So don’t worry.

You may make an Enum to contain the
values. Their descriptions are below:

Code:
 

Public Enum Modes

    Distance = 1

    Time = 2

End
Enum

 
Now bind the Enum to the ComboBox:

Code:

 
Private
Sub MyForm_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, _

    ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles
MyBase.Load

    cmbMode.DataSource =
System.Enum.GetValues(GetType(Modes))

End
Sub
 

Now read the value selected in the  ComboBox's into an Integer variable:

Code:

Dim
Mode As Integer = CInt(cmbMode.SelectedValue)

 
Otherwise you may also try this

var dropdown = document.getElementById('dropdown');var list = [    "first",    "second",    "third"]; // remove old optionswhile (dropdown.length> 0) {    dropdown.remove(0);}  // add new onesfor (var i=0;i<list.length; i++) {    var option = document.createElement("option");    option.textContent = list[i];    option.value = i;    dropdown.appendChild(option);}​

Hope you will get your answer.
