I want to send the id back to the server when someone selects a province. i fill the list with dataProvider. But when i show the name of province, the listId.value is also the name of the province, but i want the value to be the id. Is there a way to show Province name in the list, and let the province id be the value? that is without writing to much as3. without using <mx:dataProvider><mx:Object label="" data=" /></mx:dataProvider> (also because i do not see how to fill this dynamicly.
