Lightweight ComboBox for Action Script 3 - actionscript-3

I'm looking for a lightweight ComboBox for as3. The normal ComboBox component introduces an overhead of 60kb, that's too much for a banner or a landing page.
I google this looking for options but what I found are paid custom components.
Do you know where I can find a lightweight combobox for as3?
Thanks in advance,
Jonathan.

Here is an open source component that is suppose to be lighter than the stock ones:

Angular 2 Material Combobox

I am using Angular 2 material UI for my application, and I trying to make a form in which 2 fields has a combobox but while research about that I came to conclusion that the combobox doesn't exist for material UI. So my question, is there any work around for this issue, as it is important for me to use the combobox in my application?
I was able to use the Autocomplete control to achieve this. It has a defined list of items to pick from and you can also enter text... https://material.angular.io/components/autocomplete/overview
You could use the select component of Material, which is basically the same deal as a combo box.

Visual Studio 2013 LightSwitch HTML Cascading Dropdowns

I'm currently helping a small team create a HTML LightSwitch business app that has a tier of 4 Cascading dropdowns. These drop downs are linked together just as the common example of when you select your state it filters to cities only in that state. However, the issue that we have run into is that upon changing one of the parent boxes the child box doesn't reset or revert to a blank state. How would it be possible to accomplish, if possible, the clearing the child boxes upon parent change. Im pretty sure we need an OnChange event handler but I'm not sure where to put this in LightSwitch because it creates the code for you.
Any idea's or code snippets that are able to fix this problem would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance for the help,
Jeremy
I think you need a change listener event on page created method screen.addChangeListener("DropDown1",DropDown1Changed);
function DropDown1Changed(e){
screen.findContentItem("DropDown2").value ="";
screen.findContentItem("DropDown3").value ="";
};
I havent tested this code. But, something similar to this should work. This should give you general idea about the solution.
Dont forget to remove the listener.
Use pop-ups based on Queries instead of drop-downs. Make the parameters for your queries optional where necessary. LightSwitch will then update the page definition as selections are made. This is because the binding of the popup data values is done at run-time, whereas the binding for controls rendered when the page loads is static.
Michael Washington gives a pretty good summary of the technique in this article.

How to set focus on tab in tabcontrol in URL

I am trying to call a page in my customers webapplication (Exact Synergy Enterprise)
This is the link: http://someserveridontdisclose/Synergy/docs/CSCANEduCourseCard.aspx?ProjectNr=ACPGINTV
Within this page is an Ajax TabContainer with several TabPanels. One of them is called 'Doelgroepen'
I dont have the source for this application, as i am not the developer of it. We only develop custom extentions to it.
Here's the question: Is it possible to focus on one of the tabs USING ONLY AN URL? If so How?
Thank you very much for your thoughts about this.
try to set with javascript. you'll have to write your own js to get index number you want from url, then set like this
$find('<%=TabContainer1.ClientID%>').set_activeTabIndex(2);

If you do not have access to the code and if this is not part of the requirement / design specification for the application you are using (ie: what you asked the developer to do), then the answer is No.
The control does not have "native" support for URL tab selection. There needs to be specific code in the application in order to handle this.
It is however very easy to implement, if you absolutely need it, it shouldn't take much time (about 15-30 lines of code, depending on how many tabs/urls combination you need).
You can find a running sample of the AjaxControlToolkit Tabs control at the following link (the available functionnalities are described in there):
http://www.asp.net/ajaxLibrary/AjaxControlToolkitSampleSite/Tabs/Tabs.aspx
If the TAB has an ID you could make it visible by adding '#tabid' to the URL.

How to split-view design and source in Netbeans GUI builder

Short and simple, is it possible to view the source and designer at the same time with Netbeans GUI builder?
Even if there's no real straightforward way, I would like to know if someone has any ideas for workarounds, like opening the form in multiple tabs for example.
Open the form so it's displayed. Right click it's name tab and select clone.
You should now have two tabs with the same name, representing the same class.
On one of the tabs, click "Source".
Now you can "re-dock" the second/cloned view anywhere you want.

SQL 2005 Reporting Services custom report item (CRI) - what are the limits?

Reading MSDN (and other sources) about custom report items (CRI) for reporting services 2005. It looks like I'm limited to generating a bitmap. Not even with some mapping overlay for detecting mouse clicks on it. Is there away to go around this? There are two things I would like to do:
Embed HTML directly into the report, to format dynamic text.
Embed flash (swf) control in the report. This could be done with HTML if the previous point is possible. But maybe there is another way
Any suggestions? What am I missing?
You didn't missing anything.
For me, like you mentioned, the main disadvantage is, that with a CRI you can only render images. You don't get any scalable text or something similar.
If you want include swf, you need to render it as static image.
You can render the report as HTML and include the report using a floating frame in a page with the swf file. You can use functions to format dynamic text. SSRS 2008 solves some of these problems with the "richly" formated textbox (not RTF). it may worth a look, if it's an option.
You might want to take a look at Data Dynamics Reports which has all of the RS features and has better support for custom report items with a complete API not just bitmaps.
