var my_list:mx.controls.List;

my_list.addItem({data:"flash", label:"Flash"});

my_list.addItem({data:"dreamweaver", label:"Dreamweaver"});

my_list.addItem({data:"coldfusion", label:"ColdFusion"});

// Select first item by default.

my_list.selectedIndex = 0;

var listListener:Object = new Object();

listListener.change = function(evt_obj:Object) {

trace("selectedIndex = " + evt_obj.target.selectedIndex);

}

my_list.addEventListener("change", listListener);
