why dont u do something like create a custom combo box, override the method
then just add the previous click to an array and once you have that just search
for the index before it or something along those lines

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: How to get the previously selected item in ComboBox
on change?
Hmm, completely bummed with this...I tried calling
e.preventDefault( );
e.stopImmediateProp agation() ; e.stopPropagation( ); on click event and
it won't cancel the default actions.
Seems like there's no other way but to extend ComboBox and override
the way it does changeHandler?
Thanks!
