Search Flex XML Object To Find Attribute When Given Element Name?
Oct 13, 2010
I have a Flex XML object as follows:
private var _xmlCountries:XML =
<Countries>
<option value="AF">Afghanistan</option>
<option value="AL">Albania</option>
<option value="DZ">Algeria</option>
<option value="AO">Angola</option>
[Code]...
This object is ok, and shows up correctly in debug mode. The problem is I have a country name i.e. private var _country:String = "Angola";, and I want to get the corresponding value 'AO' from the XML object. Do you know how to do this?
I have tried loads of Livedocs examples, but cant get it to work. P.S. I am working on a HtpService & WebService driven app to display global weather conditions overlayed on a Google Maps interface. Going to make it available to the Flex community when finished.

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?
Eg.
// Where user1 ... usern are objects of some class User
users = [ user1, user2, user3 ... usern ]
// How do I find out the objects that have the "foo" attribute set to "bar"

How do you set a variable attribute of a xml element?This is what I expected to work:xmlElement.attribute(variableAttr) = "the variable attribute is set to this string";
However, I'm getting some error that this value can only be retrieved as a reference and not set.Ofcourse, the following does not work either as it will look for the attribute named "variableAttr" and not for the attribute named after the value of the variable variableAttr:
xmlElement.@variableAttr = "example";

I'm trying to match some events on stage to certain info from an XML doc.
For example, I have a movie clip instance named "id1234". In my XML, the attribute value for that particular node is also id1234.
So when I click on that mc, it's suppose to pull the XML data associated with id1234 from XML.
Is there anyway I can compare the current target value (that is whatever my mouse clicked) and search for the proper attribute in XML dynamically?
var _current:String = e.currentTarget.name;
if (_current == ANY OF THESE XML ATTRIBUTE VALUES) {
PULL THE CONTENT FROM THAT NODE;
} else {
Do something else;
}
The thing for me is making this process dynamic.

I'm trying to publish my AIR app from Flash CS5. Publishing has been fine, until I tried to use my own icon.
In the Adobe AIR 2.5 settings, under the ICON tab, I select my icon.
Now when I publish, I get the error: application.icon is an unexpected element/attribute
Now even if I don't include the icon, I can't publish.
I've found a ton of articles on fixing the same problem re application.version is an unexpected element/attribute - but nothing on this icon prob.

I'm having some problems getting a flash application (in AS3) to search for a specific element value inside a xml. I have the following xml file.

<email>mariamanuela@gmail.com</email>
<contacto>969876543</contacto>
[Code] .....
I have a "search" field where, supposedly, I would type a name and would get an array of "pessoa"s, but I am having some problems making the loop happen. So, imagine I would search for "Maria", I wanted to get a:
trace(PessoaArray[0]) =
<id>0140</id>
<nome>Maria Manuela</nome>
<email>mariamanuela@gmail.com</email>

If I have a chunk of XML, xml, I know that:xml..foo will return an XMLList of all the elements named foo.and xml..bar will return an XMLList of all the elements named bar.But what if I want an XMLList of all of the elements named foo or bar, in order? [code]will return a list will all such items, but the order will be unnatural (i.e. all the foos then all the bars), and the xml will be scanned twice, which is not optimal.Is there e4x for doing this in a single scan, in order? Also, it looks like the .. operator performs a depth first search.

Recently, whenever I open up the program I get an XML parse error in the output window that reads: *** XML Parsing Errors ***Line 4157: The name attribute was not found on the string element <string playername="" tiptext="Specifies that the gradient use the reflect sprea... Line 4164: The tipText attribute was not found on the string element <string playername="" ti`text="Lets the user drag the specified sprite." This is not specific to any .fla file, but seems to be related to Flash itself. The program seems to work fine otherwise. Can anyone shed some light on this?

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)?

Is there a way to find an XML element by values of two attributes (XPath or whatever?)?
I would prefer not to loop through the result of one of the attributes search, because XML is huge and its processing is already slow.
Example:
myFeature = _contextXML.namespace::row.((@modelName==var1) AND (@featureTitle==var2))..@featureDescription;

Essentially I need the MC to know whereabouts in the Array it is
Say you pick a movieclip at random, and assign in a function, how do you find out what number in the Array it is and remove it from the array?
For example...
Code:
for(a=0; a<arrayInQuestion.length; a++) {
if(arrayInQuestion[a]!=this) {
if(dist>50) {
[Code]....
But of course, "this" doesn't work, so I need to find out what number "this" is
Of course, it would be easy to remove the MC that I am checking "this" for distance with, it would just be splicing array[a], but it's "this" that I am just not sure how to splice.

given an arrayA = [a, b, c] and
arrayB = [a1,a2,a3]
by using array[0].name, it will return "a", is there any function that i can get the number "0" when i do something to "a" ?
I hope i make it clear here Xp
because i have 2 array here, i wanted to do something when the position of an element in an arrayA is same as the position of another element in arrayB.
for example
trace(array[0].name); -> output = A
trace(array[0].?????); -> output = 0
