i have another problem.. I would like to be able to delete a node according to his attribute "id" of the node "adverts". ????? here is the xml script :
<page id="Page1"> <adverts id="0"> <adfile>file1</adfile> <adwidth>1</adwidth> <adheight>50</adheight> <adposx>212</adposx> <adposy>375</adposy>
</adverts> <adverts

Trying to parse some XML (over which I have no control!)
In C# I would do something like:
XmlNodeList xnList = xml.SelectNodes("/Names/Name[@type='M']");
Can this be done in AS3?
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.
Here is my xml-file where I need to count how many children where the attribute "hjorne" is "1":
Code:
......
<element>
<fortoyning hjorne="1" />
<fortoyning hjorne="1" />
[Code]....
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 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.
I develop a piece of code that brings me to an xml, all Nodes i use this code:
for(var i=0; i< menu_xml.childNodes.length; i++){
corrent_node = menu_xml.childNodes[i].length;corrent_item.action = corrent_node.attributes.action;corrent_item.variables = corrent_node.attributes.variables;corrent_item.name.text = corrent_node.attributes.name;
[code]....
What I need is for each of the nodes highlighted in green to return the child Nodes. Example: when I move the mouse over the menu Indoor lighting, the results should be: Indoorlighting | LED 10W> 3W LED> LED 6W
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 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 Repliesin Flash using as3 how can i filter an xml by node suppose that the xml has group node like below and i want the items where group=category1
View 1 RepliesI have a simple search form on my site. It allows users to pull data from a database and then display that data. So the user would select the data set they want, a PHP script queries the database, and then puts that data into a XML file. This part is working fine. However I can not seem to get the data to display correctly in Flash. I tried the tutorial on this site for Flash and XML, and it works, but only displays one result. The problem I believe is that all the child nodes have the same tag. My XML file would look something like:
[Code]....
Not sure how I would check to see if the value of a nodes attribute "action" is equal to "left". My XML looks like the following:
<track timestamp="18/05/2011 13:21:49-0400" id="3" action="track">
<coordinates> test 1</coordinates>
</track>

How do I parse an XML document that contains nodes where underscores exist?

ok, im about to pull ALL my hair out trying figure the tree model for accessing xml nodes in flash. just when i think i have it figured out...i don't.my XML file...
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<mag>
[code]......
I have a xml like so:
<job>
<title/>
<items>
<item>
[Code]....
Basically I pulll xml data into flash and most comes in, but only the first set will show the name, after that it goes to "undefined". Secondly, I can't pull in the info.
A couple of days ago, I started a little flash/xml project to learn how xml and flash works together. I made a XMLfile like so...
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<data><themes>
<theme name="theme1">
<item img="1.jpg" desc="bla" url="link1.html"/>
<item img="2.jpg" desc="blabla" url="link2.html"/>

Here is my XML. I have removed A LOT of what is actually in the XML file I am working with, for simplicity:
PHP Code:
<State><Center ID="BOCC">
<Dispatch><Log>
<LogType>Traffic Collision - Ambulance Responding</LogType>
[Code] .....
I need ONLY the text of the LogType's (FROM CENTER "BOCC" ONLY) to show up in a list component or trace the output.. doesn't matter.. I can formulate it myself.. I just need to only grab this specific data. I do not want to see any other results (e.g. from SOMEOTHERCENTER). Like show:
Traffic Collision - Ambulance Responding
Traffic Hazard
Pedestrian On A Highway
The actual file I'm working with (and can not alter) is [URL].
very simple question, i have this: (only a part of the complete rss file)
<item>
<title>Ok, de regalo de San Valentin me pueden dar un viaje a Playa del Carmen! Digo, entre todos lo pagan! No?? #SoñarNoCuestaNada</title>

I use this code in as3 in order to find node with specific id value but it is working for 2 depth
elementsToDraw = elementsList.*.(@id=="hello");
For example at this xml node can be found
<nodes>

<node id="hello">
[Code]....
What should I write for searching in any depth element with id="hello"?
'm building a very dynamic app in flash that gets all UI values from XML. Everything's been working fine and then I start having trouble accessing an XML object that only contains attributes. For some reason I can only get it to work if the XML object has content within the opening and closing object tags.Here's the basic AS3 code:

I am new here at Kirupa. I have read the xml tutorial by kirupa but I have problem with filtering my xml. Following is the situation. I have an XMLList : list =
[Code]...
So If there is more than one result no problem! Problem comes only when I have only one result.
I have a flash app generating xml and it seems to just put the attributes for tags in a fairly random order. The problem is that I need them to be in a specific order because of circumstances outside my control. Is there a way to do this while still using the XML object and/or E4X? Or even XMLNode or XMLDocument? I'd really rather not have to resort to working with Strings.
View 2 RepliesI've been following tutorials for reading in xml data, but I'm having trouble referencing the different nodes. In the following example I'm just trying to view.[code]No errors or anything.I don't get it. The xml loads in the first place, (trace(xml)), but I can't access the individual nodes.
View 3 Repliesthis is supposed to return an XMLList of Groups anywhere in the xml. This works fine if I have more than one , but fails if there is only one .Am I wrong in my assumption that it should return one? I trace xml..Group.length() and it is 0, but the Group is definately in the xml.Any ideas on how you can get one or more Group nodes from my xml?

I have an mp3 on my site that is loaded via an xml. I have an action on the xml that allows any song to be played first by assigning an attribute. However, I want another song to play when a selected button is pressed on the flash file. But I do not want to load a new xml, instead, I want to change it using an attribute. Any who, here is the code that is used to create a sound and play selected song.
//this function selects the music assigned with "musicnum" variable
selectmusic = function() {
//create a new sound variable
sound = new Sound();
//load the music
sound.loadSound(songs[musicnum].attributes.src, true);
//set volume
[Code] .....
I have a Flash MP3 player that loads the song list from an XML file. I'm trying to set it up to take the customer to the online store to purchase the currently playing song. The player successfully loads the track name, artist name, and url to the song, but for some reason does not appear to the load the new attribute of buylink that I have just added. Given the code below, my buylink value is returned as undefined.
