ActionScript 2.0 :: Check If XML Node Has Data?
Aug 14, 2010
I have a MC that pulls in XML data. The data it calls is content and a link. To make the MC launch the link I'm using the "onRelease" function. The MC pulls in the data from the content node and the data from the link node just fine. The problem is when my client just wants content without a URL the MC still keeps the "onRelease" function, so the content (that shouldn't be linkable) is still clickable and launches a "error" page.I'm trying to disable the "onRelease" function by checking if the URL node has data in it but I can't figure out a way to do this?THIS SCRIPT IS WITH IN THE MC:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
_root.linkName = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
[code]........

Why does the trace in the loop below return false for every iteration, even though there ARE nodes named with 6 of the 8 possible values??? This only happens when I have a namespace. Is there some other way to check for the node values???

checking an XML file for a specific node.
Example:
<vid
flv="videoName"
thumb="thumbnail.jpg"
title="Video Title"
[code]....
The first vid node contains a path to a logo graphic, I then need to check in my ActionScript if there is a logo there or not, and to do something if there is(display the logo) I can trace out the logo path so I thought I could run a simple if/else to check if there is anything in that node and if so to do something:
private function thumbOver(e:MouseEvent = null):void
{
trace("
");
[code]....
Now I've tried everything, but it will always trace out "Does have a logo" no matter what I do. I tried:
if (tabData[tabID].video[e.target.id].@logo == "")
if (tabData[tabID].video[e.target.id].@logo == null)
However I get the same results?

Say I start at a leaf node, and I traverse up the tree by using .parent(). I need an exit condition once it hits root. At the moment, I'm using parent.@name != "root", where name is just an attribute, but shouldn't I be able to check the type of element as well? How? Also, is there another way to end the traversal in as3?

check to see if a node exists in an XMLList object. I have a list of objects to convert to XML, but if an xml entry already exists, then the following objects with the same name get added as children.

I would like to do a simple check when I load an XML file for the most number of characters of children nodes. In other words, if any child node contains more than 50 characters I want to to configure stage objects differently.[code]

I'm aiming to integrate KML geodata. Why won't this work? I just want to create one Node for each <placemark> tag in the xml.
The xml Data trace gets:
<kml xmlns="[UEL]">
<Placemark id="0" type="1">
<name>Zero - zero</name>
<description>This is at zero latitude and zero
longitude</description>
[Code] .....
Yet, I cannot even get the second "success!" trace.

I have this actionscript so far:
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();
xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML);
[Code]...
This loads the xml, assigns it to bookInput and traces it, but when I try and trace bookInput.project, or bookInput.button, or anything besides bookInput, no data is returned,
XML;
<button label="test1">
<project path="http://www.google.com">
</project>

I used this call: "dataXML.APARTADO.APARTADO1.text()[j]" to acces the second level items in a XML loaded file in a for loop.Is there a way to substitute the APARTADO1 level for a variable?What I want is to access APARTADO1, APARTADO2... in the XML file with a variable. I have tried to substitute it by a variable string but it returns "null". I don't know why. If you need more information I can attach my code.

I want Montana data to appear when I click the state of Montana (and so on throughout the 50 states). Montana is the instance name of my simple button on the state of Montana.
Something's not quite right about this line of code:
if (pEvent.target == myXML.statename ) { ...then do something ...}
The code works fine if I say if (pEvent.target == Montana)
Do I have to convert the myXML node value to text orsomething?

i get this error when i retrieve an XML that only has 1 node (no repeating nodes) and i try to store in an ArrayCollection. -When I have MORE than 1 "name" nodes...i do NOT get an error. My test show that XMLListCollection does NOT work either.
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert "XXXXXX" to mx.collections.ArrayCollection.
this error occurs as the line of code:
myList= e.result.list.name;
Why can't ArrayCollection work with a single node? I'm using this ArrayCollection as a dataprovider for a Component -is there an alternative I can use that will take BOTH single and repeating nodes as well as work as a dataprovider?
code:
[Bindable]
private var myList:ArrayCollection= new ArrayCollection();
private function getList(e:Event):void{
var getStudyLoungesService:HTTPService = new HTTPService();
[Code]....

I have an AdvancedDataGrid tree with a ArrayCollection as its dataprovider. Now, for instance, i drag a leaf from one node to another node. To catch the event I'm adding a Listener to dragComplete.
[Code]...
My Problem: I want to know the new node where the leaf was dropped. Actually i would have expected that in the event there is a property like dropParent. This is not the case.

I thought this was going to be easy! I would like to search an XML file for a particular data set i.e. set of nodes depending on a passed variable. However, storing a subset of my XML file via Code:var gallery = this.firstChild; and then searching 'gallery' as you would an array-using a for()-doesn't work since this.firstChild isn't returning an array
Code:
<gallery>
<collection title="Christmas 2004">

If you write a simple object to a socket:
var o:Object = new Object();
o.type = e.type;
o.params = e.params;
_socket.writeObject(o);
_socket.flush();
Then on the client do you simply use:
private function onData(e:ProgressEvent):void
{
var o:Object = _clientSocket.readObject();
}
Or do you have to implement some way of checking all of the data has been received recieved before calling .readObject()
