Tariq,

left a couple of comments for Charan, but didn’t realize that the mxml code is stripped out. Maybe you can fix.

Thanks

Charan,

making the changes to the tag and the id description, as described in my previous reply to you should eliminate the error.

Charan,

Listing 10.4: Utilizing the Spark ItemRenderer Object:

Replace the code as follows -

- Adobe has made a decision to use the rather than . See the following: http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/Spark+Text+Primitives+Decision . Whenever you see the tag in the book, just replace with . Additionally, if you just name the id=”label”, I find that this will also trigger the component error. Changing the label id to something more unique like “mylabel” worked for me.

Listing 10.5: Spark item renderer object implementation

The images are not showing up because the path to the image source has a small typo. Simply change the path by adding “../” before each imgSource description. Once done, your code should read like the following:
imgSource = “../assets/IMG_0325.JPG”

Cheers,

Ben

Listing 9.6 Custom Spark List component MXML code (MyCustomList.mxml) Tariq, this is how I made the code work. - replaced SimpleText with Label, and changed the selectionChanging event since that didn't seem to work for me. Also added an HGroup for the items, and changed the reference to the image paths. Really appreciate the effort you guys put into the book. Ben

Should be: … use the domain property, which can be either US Only, US or Canada, or Canada Only.

Thanks for a great book, Tariq.

Hi Stephan thanks. I believe your copy of the book will have a unique code to download the Flex 3 in Action PDF.
