Have a movie clip with a combo box that gets populated though a CFC, this
works. I want the combo box movie clip to display in an accordion component, it
does display but the combo box doesn't get populated with data. How do you
reference the nested movie clip with remote scripting to get the data to
display in the combo box that inside an accordion.
Thanks

The quirky thing about Accordions is that you have to use the childName for
reference and not the name of the symbol inside the Accordion pane (the
childSymbol). So to reference a combox box inside a particular pane of an
Accordion, it would be:

myAccordion.myChildName.myComboBox

Hope that helps!

This helps, but (doesn't seem like there is alway one) I don't see refences to
ChildName in the updated Accordion Pane (DRK 5) documentation. I've seen old
stuff that show childNames and ChildLabels for the component, I don't see those
options anymore. Is it refenced another way in the updated Accordion
Component? Thanks a bunch for you help.

This is the way I reference the AS2 components that come with Flash MX 2004.

Hmmmm....
