Question for you, what If when the combox is selected it goes to differant frames within your movie, how would you do that ?

I tried:


stop();
import mx.controls.*;
//
var theData:Array = ["A", "B", "C", "D", "E"];
var theFrame:Array = ["A", "B", "C", "D", "E"];
//
createClassObject(ComboBox, "co", 1, {dataProvider:theData, _x:50, _y:50});
//
var o:Object = new Object();
o.change = function(z) {
gotoAndStop(selectedIndex);
};
co.addEventListener("change", o)

stop();
import mx.controls.*;
//
var theData:Array = ["A", "B", "C", "D", "E"];
var theFrame:Array = ["A", "B", "C", "D", "E"];
//
createClassObject(ComboBox, "co", 1, {dataProvider:theData, _x:50, _y:50});
//
var o:Object = new Object();
o.change = function(z) {
gotoAndStop(theFrame[z.target.selectedIndex]);
};
co.addEventListener("change", o);

Hi there!

This is my first post here . I am learning FLash 8 and combining that with PHP but I am stuck on a flash issuew.
I am using a combo box (called myComboBox) to give the user a selection of listed items from a database. I want the user to select an item from the drop down which then in turn brings up further information about that selection in a dynamic text box.

I want the information to be displayed as soon as the selection is pressed without the user having to click a button next to the component

The way I am trying to do it is set some Listener Handler(or something like that) that calls a function to display the info in the dynamic textbox (I called txtBox1) but this does not work.

Here's my code:

myData = new LoadVars();
myData.onLoad = function(){
placeTheDataIntoTheRightPlace();
};
myData.load("http://localhost/tda/Flash/db2.php");
placeTheDataIntoTheRightPlace = function(){

var i=0;
while ((myData["apellido" + i])<>null){

myComboBox.addItemAt(i,(myData["apellido" + i]+ ", " + myData["nombre" + i]));
i++;

listenerObject = new Object();
listenerObject.change = function(eventObject){

this.txtBox1.text= myData["torre" + i];
}
myComboBox.addEventListener("change", listenerObject);
};
};

I don't know, sure I'm doing wrong things here but what!? I'm lose hop

Please be gently because I'm new actionscript user. Any help on this would be great as I am getting really frustrated

Thanks a lot in advenced and have a great week!
