<![CDATA[

private function itemFilter (item : Object ) : Boolean
{
return true;
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:HTTPService id="xmlItems" result="searchComplete(event)"
resultFormat="e4x" contentType="application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
fault="httpsFault(event)" useProxy="false" method="POST"
url="items.asp"/>
<mx:XMLListCollection id="xlcItems" source="{xmlItems.lastResult.item}"
filterFunction="itemFilter"/>
<mx:DataGrid sortableColumns="false" dataProvider="{xlcItems}"
id="dgItems" headerShift="reGroup(event)"
headerRelease="headerRelease(event)" editable="false" focusAlpha="0.0"
