Hi,
Is it possible to change the color of the day depending on some xml data put in data provider of an DateChooser?
like I hav the following:

 
 
 
        DateChooser {
            dateChooserStyleName: myDateChooser;
        }
 
        .myDateChooser {
            background-color:red;           
            font-size:12;
 
        }
 
        .myToday {
 
            fontWeight: bold;
            font-size:14;
            font-thickness:4;
            background-color:yellow;
 
        }
 
 
 
		 0)
        {
         for (var i:uint=0; i &lt; mycal.numChildren; i++)
         {
          var calendarObj:Object=mycal.getChildAt(i);
          if (calendarObj.hasOwnProperty(&quot;className&quot;))
          {
            if (calendarObj.className == &quot;CalendarLayout&quot;)
            {
              var cal:CalendarLayout=CalendarLayout(calendarObj);
 
              for (var j:uint=0; j  0)
                  {
                    for (var k:uint=0; k &lt; eventArray.length; k++)
                    {
                      dayHTML+=&quot;<a HREF='Event:" + eventArray[k].data + "' rel="nofollow">" + eventArray[k].label + "</A>";
 
                    }
 
                    day.htmlText=dayHTML;
                    day.styleName="myToday";
                    mycal.validateDisplayList();
                   //Alert.show("inside last Loop  "+dayHTML);
                   // day.opaqueBackground=true;
 
                  }
                }
              }
            }
          }
         }
       }
      }
 
      private function linkHandler(event:TextEvent):void
      {
        Alert.show("Event: " + event.text);
      }
 
      private function dateHelper(renderedDate:String):Array
      {
        var result:Array=new Array();
        for (var i:uint=0; i 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
And the data1.xml as :
 
 
 
 
8/22/2009
This is  a test 1
Stephens Test 1
 
 
8/23/2009
This is  a test 2

Like if the string on a database is this then the color of the specific day on the datechooser will be labeled in purple or green.
