I responded to your direct e-mail with a more detailed explanation,
but for the benefit of the list:
The way to fix this is to either do:
this._lockroot = true;
at the top of the AS code in the SWF that contains the combo boxes, or do:
loadedMovie._lockroot = true;
in the loader movie, where loadedMovie is the movie clip that the
movie was loaded into.

Hi there,
I am having a unique problem using the combo box component. When I run
the file on its own, it works great, but when I load the swf into my
main file it stops working. Now to eliminate possibilities for other
errors I created 2 files to test this and removed all other programming
and am still having the same error.
Would you mind taking a look and seeing if you can see my error? **
Sorry for the double post newbies.**
In the test file, I drug 4 combo box components to the stage and gave
them the
instance of combo1, combo2, combo3 and combo4.
Here is the code in the test file:
//******************** Combo Boxes **********************\\
function change(evt) {
trace(evt.target.selectedItem.label);
trace(evt.target);
for (var i = 1; i<=numComboBoxes; i++) {
thisComboBox = this["combo"+i];
trace('combo'+i+" "+thisComboBox.value);
}
}
numComboBoxes = 4;
for (var i = 1; i<=numComboBoxes; i++) {
var thisComboBox = this["combo"+i];
dataNum=0;
thisComboBox.addItem({data:dataNum++, label:""});
thisComboBox.addItem({data:dataNum++, label:"aa"});
thisComboBox.addItem({data:dataNum++, label:"bb"});
thisComboBox.addItem({data:dataNum++, label:"cc"});
thisComboBox.addItem({data:dataNum++, label:"dd"});
thisComboBox.addItem({data:dataNum++, label:"ee"});
thisComboBox.addItem({data:dataNum++, label:"ff"});
thisComboBox.addItem({data:dataNum++, label:"gg"});
thisComboBox.addItem({data:dataNum++, label:"hh"});
thisComboBox.addItem({data:dataNum++, label:"ii"});
thisComboBox.addItem({data:dataNum++, label:"jj"});
thisComboBox.addItem({data:dataNum++, label:"kk"});
thisComboBox.addItem({data:dataNum++, label:"ll"});
thisComboBox.addItem({data:dataNum++, label:"mm"});
thisComboBox.addEventListener("change", this);
thisComboBox.selectedIndex = 0;
}
_______________________________________
Then in a second file I created a loader. Here is the code:
stop();
var myLoadedClip_mc:MovieClip
=this.createEmptyMovieClip("myLoadedClip_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth)
function load(filename:String, target_mc:MovieClip):Void
{
_loadListener = new Object();
_loadListener.onLoadInit = Delegate.create(this, loadComplete)
_fileLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
_fileLoader.addListener(_loadListener);
_fileLoader.loadClip(filename, target_mc);
}
function loadComplete():Void
{
trace("the clip is now loaded and on timeline
as:"+myLoadedClip_mc)
}
movie = "testCombo.swf"
load(movie, myLoadedClip_mc)
_______________________________________
I am having the same issue. It works by itself, but not in the loader.
Any ideas? I am stumped!
Thanks!
Susan
