I'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??
I need to count how many instances there is of a spesific attribute in my xml-list.

Trying to parse some XML (over which I have no control!)
In C# I would do something like:

Can this be done in AS3?

I have a combobox and list component on the stage. The combobox has 3 selections. How do I get it so that each selection triggers the specific xml file to load into the list component? I can't get them to communicate to each other.

But that really just gives me back the original XML (since I'm asking for the root where those conditions are met I get the root). I understand why my approach doesn't work, but I don't know where to go from here./grandParent
So. Basically I'm trying to create a news-ticker that feeds of an XML-page that I don't have control over. It rolls horizontally across the screen. (Eventually...)

How would I access the specific attribute "6403"? I tried sth like this but did not work :
"emp.employee[2].@id"
I have been looking for a reference for this all over Google and even through the Adobe Forums but I can't find anything.I'm using Flash CS4, AS2. I'm calling an XML document to populate 2 text areas (textArea). In one textArea I need to display the firstChild (or ROOT node) and three childNodes after that. In the other textArea, I need to display the fourth childNode only.I am good to go for the second textArea, the one that only shows the fourth childNode. What I cannot figure out is how to hide that fourth childNode from my other textArea that calls for the same XML file. My code is written below, actionscript and XML.My textArea boxes are named "myText" and "myText2". "myText2" is the one that is working properly. I need to show only the <title> <description> and <price> tags in the "myText" box, not the <link> tag.

How do I get a Flex tree to display only specific XML nodes?
A sample of the XML data is below. Only the Grouper and Product elements should be displayed as branch and leaf nodes respectively; the Name elements should not be displayed. I can't use XSL or e4x to modify the XML as the Name elements' text is used as the label for the Grouper and Product tree nodes. Also, I cannot move the Name element to be an attribute as it needs to include a CDATA section.
It looks like using a custom TreeDataDescriptor is the way forward but I cannot find any examples of using one with XML.
<Grouper Type="ProductHeading" Id="" icon="drugIcon">
<Name>ASPAV</Name>
<Product Id="1002081" icon="genericIcon">

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 do not know flash at all and i am writing some code in Action Script 3 and am having some trouble.
Basically i have a list that is read from an XML file.
I am busy writing a function to allow a user to enter a search word that will allow him/her to find the closest matching node.
For example, if the nodes are:
1) movies
2) music
3) books
4) plays
typing "m" will search and scroll through 1 and 2 continuosly after every button click but typing "mo" will find only 1.
Using mytree.findNode("label", search_word); //will only find nodes of EXACT name Using mytree.getNextIndexAtLetter(search_word, i); //Will only find nodes with starting letter of search word
I made a flash program that makes a list of nodes from xml. They go like this 1 2 3 4 5..How can i make them go like 5 4 3 2 1 ?

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

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 have a basic Tree built in Flex. The Tree works fine. I'm attempting to get a list of all of the visible nodes. I know there is a Tree.openItems, but that does not suffice because (for example) if you open all the items in your tree and then close the root, the invisible opened items are still counted.

I would like find out if it is possible to:
1) load in an xml file that contains several names
2) Load each one of those names into a predefined movie clip which would display the name
3) randomize the placement of each name in a given shape area so that the Movie clips with names would randomly fill in to make a specific shape.
Suppose I have a list of objects of a certain custom type and I need to find an object given only the value of one of its attributes, how do I do it?

// How do I find out the objects that have the "foo" attribute set to "bar"

For those unfamiliar with tree structures, tree structures are usually dynamic lists where every node has a pointer to two other nodes. They are arranged so it makes for faster searching and stuff and are very useful in programming languages that offer direct access to heap memory. Although I don't know if there would be benefits of making tree structures in AS would be of any help but I decided to have a go at it anyway. Since there are no pointers in flash I tried to just replace pointers to nodes with nodes themselves. Such things usually work in java I think because the language just automatically makes pointers for variables.

I was wondering if it was possible to list all the files inside a specific folder using Flash 8 Action Script. Just that I have an image gallery that has all the image names in an array. What I would like to do instead is get the image names from the folder they are in. Is something like this possible without the use of a server side programming language like PHP since the flash file will not be on a PHP server.
