Flist.getSelectedItem question

[vcuchris]

I am assuming when using Flist.getSelectedItem(), it returns an object, and not actually the label that is in the listbox. How can I gain access to the actual string label that is displayed in the box.

something like

Flist.getSelectedItem().name ?

Flist.getSelectedItem().label ?

Basically, I'm trying to get around having to define indicies in the as code. Any help would be much appreciated.

getValue will return the data if it exists. If it doesn't exist it returns the label
