Wow, I've got to say; "What a mess." However, you can get it to work
with the following changes:
[Bindable]
private var customMeals:XMLListCollection = new XMLListCollection();
// addToMeal event Handler
private function addToMealHandler(event:Event):void
{
customMeals.addItem((event.target as
Panelcreatemealitem).mealDetails);
Alert.show(customMeals.toString());
}
You have some naming conflicts and, since you're dealing with xml,
you'll need to use an XMLListCollection; instead of an ArrayCollection.
