I just did Kirupa's (excellent) XML/AS3 tutorial, and I still have one important question. How can I set up and search for an XML node with multiple entries?
for example:
Code:
<Movie>
<MovieTitle>Nine Months</MovieTitle>
<Actors>Hugh Grant, Julianne Moore, Tom Arnold</Actors>
<Movie>
That way, I can use a "for" loop or something (?) to search for actor Hugh Grant, and it'll return all of his (excellent) movies.

I have a few text based pages on a site i am trying to build which contain dynamic text (contained within a database, which can be changed from elsewhere). These are loaded into a dynamic text box of a fixed size that fits within my page. This all works great. I have created two scroll movieclips (which act as buttons, one for up, one for down) which when clicked cause the textbox to scroll up or down as relevant. These work fine as well. The problem i'm having is I only want the scroll buttons to appear if they are required (ie if the text within the text field is larger than its height so you need to scroll to read it all), but i cannot work out how to find the height of the actual content (as opposed to the height of the predefined dynamic text box). I can obviously create the textbox as autosized, then find it's height, then compare it to the desired height and (if it's larger) manually change it's height and display the scroll buttons, however i cannot imagine this is the most effective way to do it at all? I'm sure there is a standard, logical way to do this but i cannot seem to find any reference to it online or in the forums, but maybe because i'm searching for the wrong thing

This one is for all the TextField wizards out there. I have a text field that displays 2 paragraphs of texts. The first one I want to be truncated to show only 3 lines of text maximum. The 2nd paragraph is to be appended to that text.
Is there a way I can show only the first 3 lines of the first paragraph? Think of it like an abstract for an article for the first paragraph.
I tried doing it with String.subStr(0, guestimate of 3 lines of chars) but it's pretty inconsistent in that some strings will take up 4 lines of the textfield.
I thought about doing 2 separate textfields but in the case of the first paragraph having only 1 line worth of chars, there will be gap of 2 lines worth of chars between the 2nd paragraph.

In a nutshell, I'm trying to create a dynamic text box in which text show up for one XML node but not for another, so I have some XML nodes that have info in them and others that don't. This seems like it would be a realatively easy thing to do, but I've been working on figuring out how to do so for days with no avail. I'm working on a template for my portfolio gallery at: [URL] I've linked pdfs to just some of the images in my modified xml slideshow from the tutorial using the following code from this forum:

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>

I am trying to create a text node within a child node:
user_xml.firstChild.appendChild( user_xml.createTextNode("<![CDATA[------]]>") );
But when I trace this I get:
user_xml = <UserDetails><![CDATA[------]]></UserDetails>
Which is not what I need. What I need returning is:
user_xml = <UserDetails><![CDATA[------]]></UserDetails>

I have a RSS feed parsed into one text box and am using imported CSS to format the text in one Textfield that was created with as3.Problem is my roll over and click handler functions for making each text variable a link to the XML URL link will not work unless I point the function at the entire text field. I just want the individual text variables made from the RSS Title nodes, to be set to react to my handleFHTClicked, rollOutHandler and ollOverHandler functions. The movie runs Ok parsing the nodes and picking up the CSS, but I get this error in the output window when it reaches the aformentioned functions..

I have a Label component in my library list, and have placed an instance of it on stage named lowtemp_label. I've written the following AS3 script in my Main.as file that grabs 3 nodes from an XML web service. I want to send each of the 3 values to 3 separate label components. However, when I run the SWF, my label components do not display the data. How can I remedy this?

Kirupa's tutprial "Using XML in Flash CS3/AS3" when filtering the node values, how can I match a text string say "Stephen" with "Stephen E. Ambrose"
var authorList:XMLList = bookInput.Book.(author == "Stephen E. Ambrose");
Using the above code it only searches the node which author value is "Stephen E. Ambrose" but I want to search only "Stephen" and want to get this node returned.
