I'm having trouble getting a specific attribute my xml. Is there an easy way to say if the attribute value = 1234 then return its nodevalue
myXML = new XML();
myXML.load("sample.xml");
myXML.ignoreWhite = true;
myXML.onLoad=feeds;

Suppose I have an xml looking like this?
Code:
var emp:XML =
<employees>
<employee id="6401" code="231">
<lastName>Wu</lastName>
<firstName>Erin</firstName>
</employee>
<employee id="6402" code="232">
<lastName>Wu</lastName>
<firstName>Erin</firstName>
</employee>
<employee id="6403" code="233">
<lastName>Wu</lastName>
<firstName>Erin</firstName>
</employee>; </employees>
How would I access the specific attribute "6403"? I tried sth like this but did not work :
"emp.employee[2].@id"
I have a series of XML nodes that are the same (except for the data of course). I want to find the node with that attribute and use that node's data. I know I can do this with a for loop and an if statement but I was hoping that there was a better way.[code]...
View 2 RepliesI'm looking for a way to list all XMLNode that have a certain attribute, in my case, the "link" attribute.So i do :
Code:
var list:XMLList = xml..@link;
for each(var i in list){
trace(i);
}
But this traces the value of the attribute and not the node containing the attribute... How to trace the node??
From some xml I want to find items that have a specific attribute and value.Here is example xml:

I've been trying to figure out how to display the descendants (in this case exchangeRate and PlacesOfInterest) of a parent node with a specific attribute.To set the scene - the user clicks on a button which sets a string variable to a destination eg. japan or australia.The code then runs through a set of nodes in the XML and any that have a matching attribute is traced - simple enoughWhat I can't figure out is how to then display only the child nodes of the node with that attribute.I'm sure there has to be a way of doing it and I'll probably be banging my head against the desk when I find it
public function ParseDestinations(destinationInput:XML):void
{
var destAttributes:XMLList = destinationInput.adventure.destination.attributes();

Given the following XML code:
<set name="thumbsBooks">
<set name="pdf">
<thumb>Data I want to access</thumb>
<thumb>Data I want to access</thumb>
[code]....
I want to be able to get the data contained in the "thumb" tags using the "name" attribute value of the parent tag as a selector, something like you would do in jQuery: $('set[name="pdf"]').find('thumb');Is there a method like this in Action Script 2 (can't use AS3)?
I need to count how many instances there is of a spesific attribute in my xml-list.
Here is my xml-file where I need to count how many children where the attribute "hjorne" is "1":

<fortoyning hjorne="1" />

But I only need the number 3 as the value of "ant_h1". How do I do that or is it an another way to achieve this?
I am not new to regex but have come across a problem I can't seem to solve. I'm trying to locate a specific HTML tag that has a specific attribute/value pair (it may have other attributes, too, but those are optional), extract it's contents as a backreference and wrap a new custom tag around it. The original tag is:

I am having trouble parsing some xml that has a few attribute names with : characters in them. The compiler is not throwing any errors and when I trace my complete xml object out it is all there, however when I try to trace out any element or node it keeps comming up undefined. I removed the attribute names with : characters in them and everything works fine. I cant seem to target the attributes either to delete them.
View 3 RepliesI have been trying to figure out how you could add in custom attribute tags that flash can recover.
EX:
<param name = "movie" value = "somefile.swf">
<embed src = "somefile.swf" width = "550" height = "400">
Except, that I would like to add a Custom tag, like "randNum" so that the tag user could input some number, or rather, a flash movie could generate a tag with a number already put in...Basically, heres a really basic version of the idea.There is a Flash Movie.In the movie, you can input text into a textfield.Upon finishing your message, you click a button "save".
The flash movie then:
1. Comes up with a random number unique to the message.
2. Assigns that number to a variable... "randNum".
3. Saves message as a xml file to the server as "filename" + randNum.
4. Outputs into a textfield a generated HTML tag that a user can post on myspace and such so that it will load in the flash movie.
Except... in the tag, there will be a custom attribute. If the random number variable "randNum" was 00112233, the custom attribute will be 00112233.
EX:
<embed src = "somefile.swf" width = "550" height = "400" randNum = "00112233">
So when the movie opens, it retrieves that randNum from the tag and can use it inside flash. How can this be done? Sorry this post was so long, but I wanted everyone to understand the concept.
What I want is a hint how to make a specific thing happen while clicking a specific button. Like "if I click button 1, do this". Would like to use this script though I'm gonna add buttons over time and this is an easy way to have the functionality working.
Here's the code:
Attach Code
function hitButton(btn) {
btn.onRollOver = function() {
this.colorTo (0xC4006A);

I'm updating an old AS2 project and have a question about XML. This thing I'm working on uses two xml files, pics.xml and lang.xml. The last one of the two contains translations for the flash file and looks like this:
PHP Code:
<lang> <trans lang="sv"> <nextPic>N�sta bild</nextPic> <prevPic>F�reg�ende bild</prevPic> <showMap>Visa karta</showMap> </trans> <trans lang="en"> <nextPic>Next picture</nextPic> <prevPic>Previous picture</prevPic> <showMap>Show Map</showMap> </trans></lang>
and in the pics.xml you choose what language to display by setting an xml attribute to either "sv" or "en".My question is, how do I tell the function that parses lang.xml to only parse the node with the right language. If "sv" is set in pics.xml I only want to parse the first bit om lang.xml there, you se what I mean? I don't what to use something like: this.firstChild.childNodes[0].blahblah cos most likely the users of this will ad more languages...
