Working with mx.core.Repeater

I recently did some Flex work that involved quite extensive use the mx:Repeater tag and initially had some problems accessing the repeater instances using AS3.

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

[FLASH]/downloads/flex/repeater/checkboxrepeater.swf,300,150[/FLASH]

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 ;-)
