Flash AS3 ComboBox Component Tutorial: Learn Drop Menus

[xianscott]

Great tutorial,

But, I'd rather not be coding on the timeline and with external package files.

It can get disorganized.

Anyway, Its a shame that flash is dying.

Thanks for your tutorial about adding a paypal button in flash. It was a huge help for my site. II wanted to ask if you could upload a tutorial or maybe send me a message on how to create a drop down box that will work along with the add to cart button. I need to create two drop down boxes for both size and color and I do not know how. Your help is much appreciated.

Yes it is possible to populate a combobox based on the selection made in another combo box. This is a simple process, and just requires an if conditional. For example, if(combobox1.selectedItem.labe­l == "Fish"){ combobox2.removeAll(); combobox2.addItem{(label: "Salmon")}; combobox2.addItem{(label: "Mackeral")}; combobox2.addItem{(label: "Trout")}; } else if(combobox1.selectedItem.labe­l == "Meat"){ combobox2.removeAll(); combobox2.addItem{(label: "Chicken")}; etc....
