Basic OOP with XML

programming flash

Hello, I’m trying to finally dive into OOP and tie it into XMl that I am loading. I am using a custom class I created and I believe I’ve linked everything together that should be (paths and whatnot). The problem I’m having is I’m trying to trace 1 of the new portfolio objects I created so that I can reference to its properties. But whenever I trace i get an undefined. Anyone who could point me in the right direction would be awesome! Here is the XML code:


var ap:Array = new Array();

xmltw = new mx.transitions.Tween(xmlload, "_alpha", _global.transNone, 0, 100, 10);
xmltw.onMotionFinished=function(){
    ap_xml = new XML();
    ap_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
    ap_xml.load('xml/webdesign.xml');
    ap_xml.onLoad = function(sucess) {
        if (sucess) {
            var nodes:Array = this.firstChild.childNodes;
            var portdir:String = this.firstChild.attributes.dir;
            for(var i=0; i<nodes.length; i++){
                xclient = nodes*.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
                xname = nodes*.childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
                xurl = nodes*.childNodes[2].firstChild.nodeValue;
                xsimg = nodes*.childNodes[3].firstChild.nodeValue;
                xmimg = nodes*.childNodes[4].firstChild.nodeValue;
                xlimg = nodes*.childNodes[5].firstChild.nodeValue;
                xtools = nodes*.childNodes[6].firstChild.nodeValue;                
                xtype = nodes*.attributes.type;
                xdir = nodes*.attributes.dir;        
                ap.push(new Portfolio(xclient,xname,xurl,xsimg,xmimg,xlimg,xtools,xtype,xdir));
            }
            
            parseFile(ap_xml);
            totalpages = Math.ceil(ap.length/8)-1;
            curpage = 0;
            themin = 0;
            themax = 7;
            if(themax>=ap.length){
                themax=ap.length-1;
            }
            viewinfo.thetext.text = (themin+1)+"-"+(themax+1)+" of "+ap.length;
            xmldur = new mx.transitions.Tween(xmlload, "_alpha", _global.transNone, 100, 0, 10);
            xmldur.onMotionFinished=function(){
                startaniin();
            }
            trace(ap[0]);
        }
    };
}

Here is how I have my class setup:


class Portfolio
{
    public var typex:Number;
    public var dir:String;
    public var client:String;
    public var namex:String;
    public var url:String;
    public var simg:String;
    public var mimg:String;
    public var bimg:String;
    public var tools:String;
    
    public function Portfolio(ty:Number,di:String,cl:String,na:String,ur:String,si:String,mi:String,bi:String,to:String)
    {
        typex = ty;
        dir = di;
        client = cl;
        namex = na;
        url = ur;
        simg = si;
        mimg = mi;
        bimg = bi;
        tools = to;        
    }
}
