Mike Chambers and Downey in Belgium

November 28th, 2006

If you’ve got some free time this coming Saturday afternoon head on down to Brussels for another Adobe usergroup event with our user group regular Mike Chambers, Senior Product Manager for Developer relations, and first-but-hopefully-not-last-timer Mike Downey, Senior Product Manager for Flash.

You’ll hear all about Adobe’s infamous Apollo project and a state of the union for Flash with some possible sneak peeks at what is to come in the not too distant future.

The meeting is free of charge as always but places are limited (not very many seats left) and you are required to register! For more information or reserving your seat visit our user group website.

To avoid the headache for anyone else trying to figure it out, I just did a quick example (right-click to view source).

The basic idea is you access the component instance by array notation, for example: name_cb[0] is the first name_cb instance in the Repeater loop. Easy enough if you know how to do it ;-)
