		<description><![CDATA[Introduction

The following post will describe how to convert data selected from a List component in Flash (AS3) to a String.

After Googling and finding no solution, I decided to create develop my own solution to the problem. There is not a straight-forward way to get the selected data from a List component converted to a String. You'd think there would be a simple function in AS3 that could accomplish this task. If there is such a function, I have been unable to find it in the ActionScript 3.0 Language and Components Reference.
Code Snippet

[as3]submitBut.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, submitHandler);

function submitHandler(e:MouseEvent) {
	var myArr:Array = toppingList.selectedIndices;

	var selectedToppings:String = "";

	for(var i:int = 0; i < myArr.length; i++) {
		var j:int = myArr[i];
		if(selectedToppings == "") {
			selectedToppings = toppingList.getItemAt(j).data;
		} else {
			selectedToppings += ", " + toppingList.getItemAt(j).data;
		}
	}

	trace("Selected toppings: " + selectedToppings);
}[/as3]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is an update from my previous post regarding Netflix on TiVo. Since that post, the Netflix service on TiVo has gone downhill. Anytime I try to watch a title in my Instant Queue, the video constantly buffers. When a title loads, the video starts downloading and picks a video quality (which is always low).

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday Google launched their Public DNS and many rejoiced in the future of a faster browsing experience. Not me. I have to admit, this worries me a great deal. Call me a cynic, but all I see here is the potential for Google to control the end user's browsing experience. Those who use this service have no way to control what sites are blocked and which are allowed. Google takes care of it for you. And that is a scary thought. Let's not forget that Google is the largest advertising and redirection site on the Internet. Why wouldn't they use this to their advantage and control your Internet experience?]]></description>

What they don&#8217;t tell you on the website is that if you have additional services, the pricing for a second CableCARD rapidly increases. For example, the digital preferred package (which I have) brings the price of a second CableCARD to $7.95 as opposed to $2.95. Talk about getting nickled and [...]]]></description>
