List Box Selection

[GeoDM]

I have a list box in flash. As the user selects a item in the list box I would like a layer to become visible. Preferably I'd like the users to select the item in the list box and depending on that selection a certain graphic appears. For example I have a Dinner Plate. In the list box are various foods. I'd like that food to display on the plate when selected.

Instead of making "a layer to become visible", I'd use [tt]attachMovie()[/tt].

I see how that would work. Thanks for pointing me in that direction. I would name the frame say food1 and add this to ActionScript:

on(click){
this._parent.gotoAndStop("food1");
}

but how should I handle the click in the list box?

What is "list box" - is it ComboBox Component? If so you'll need to set up an EventListner to listen to the [tt]ComboBox.change[/tt] event.
