Arrays don't notify when you push items onto them, so you have to use ArrayCollection or use a temporary Array and assign it to myList

I am learning so I have created a dynamic list for a combo box. The problem is that when I press a button and it gets the data, I then go to the combo box and I see 1 entry. If I then select the combo box again I then will see all the entries. Not sure how to have all the entries show the first time I select the combo box. Here is my code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml <http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml> " layout="absolute"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.collections.ArrayCollection; import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent; import com.adobe.serialization.json.JSON; [Bindable] public var myList:Array = new Array(); public function personJSON(event:ResultEvent):void { var rawData:String = String(event.result); var person:Object = JSON.decode(rawData); trace(person[0].item1); trace(person.length); var x:Number; for(x=0;x<person.length;x++){ trace(person[x].item1); myList.push(person[x].item1); } trace(myList.length); } public function clearArray():void { myList = []; cmboOne.text = 'Choose'; } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:HTTPService id="personRequest" url="http://127.0.0.1/test/Class/InventoryRequest.php <http://127.0.0.1/test/Class/InventoryRequest.php> " useProxy="false" method="GET" resultFormat="text" result="personJSON(event)"> <mx:request xmlns=""> <getPerson>"true"</getPerson> </mx:request> </mx:HTTPService> <mx:Panel x="401" y="294" width="250" height="275" layout="absolute"> <mx:Button x="69" y="121" label="Get Info" click="personRequest.send()" id="send_btn"/> <mx:Button id="aryClear" click="clearArray()" label="Clear" x="78" y="151"/> </mx:Panel> <mx:ComboBox id="cmboOne" dataProvider="{myList}" rowCount="6" x="157" y="44"/> </mx:Application> Thanks, timgerr
