Using a Repeater over an Array of Strings

Jun 14, 2006 - Using a Repeater over an Array of Strings
A simple how-to example of using repeaters to loop over an array

[Bindable]
private var dayStrings:Array = ["Monday","Tusday","Wednesday","Thrusday","Friday","Saturday","Sunday"];

 <mx:HBox>
   <mx:Repeater id="dayTitles" dataProvider="{dayStrings}">
     <mx:VBox>
       <mx:Label text="{dayTitles.currentItem}" />
     </mx:VBox>
   </mx:Repeater>
 </mx:HBox>

Note: You bind to the ID of the Repeater, not to the ID/name of the array.

Thanks to Ian Skinner for the inspiration of this post.
