Displaying XML content problem

Hi guys,

I’m doing a little exercise to fully understand XML.

So I made an XML :

[SIZE=2]


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PLAYLIST>
    <CHAPTERS>
        <CHAPTER TYPE="CHAPITRE 1">
            <VIDEO TITLE="VIDEO_1"/>
            <VIDEO TITLE="VIDEO_2"/>
            <VIDEO TITLE="VIDEO_3"/>
            <VIDEO TITLE="VIDEO_4"/>
            <VIDEO TITLE="VIDEO_5"/>
            <VIDEO TITLE="VIDEO_6"/>
        </CHAPTER>
        <CHAPTER TYPE="CHAPITRE 2">
            <VIDEO TITLE="VIDEO_7"/>
            <VIDEO TITLE="VIDEO_8"/>
            <VIDEO TITLE="VIDEO_9"/>
        </CHAPTER>
        <CHAPTER TYPE="CHAPITRE 3">
            <VIDEO TITLE="VIDEO_10"/>
            <VIDEO TITLE="VIDEO_11"/>
            <VIDEO TITLE="VIDEO_12"/>
            <VIDEO TITLE="VIDEO_13"/>
        </CHAPTER>
    </CHAPTERS>
</PLAYLIST>

Then in order to load the XML, i did this :



var my_list:XMLList;
var my_total:Number;

var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
myLoader.load(new URLRequest("LectureXML.xml"));
myLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, processXML);




function processXML(e:Event):void {

    var myXML:XML = new XML(e.target.data);
    
    
    var my_total:int=0;
    

    
for(var i in myXML.CHAPTERS.CHAPTER)
{
        
        my_total += myXML.CHAPTERS.CHAPTER*.VIDEO.length();
        trace(my_total);
        trace("===>" + myXML.CHAPTERS.CHAPTER*.@TYPE);         
        
        
        for(var j in myXML.CHAPTERS.CHAPTER*)                
        {
                my_list = myXML.CHAPTERS.CHAPTER*[j].VIDEO;
                trace(myXML.CHAPTERS.CHAPTER*[j].VIDEO.@TITLE); 
                trace(my_list);
        }
}

    DisplayList();

    
}

[/SIZE]

The trace(); is doing all right, it gives me exactly what I want :

[SIZE=1]6
===>CHAPITRE 1
VIDEO_1VIDEO_2VIDEO_3VIDEO_4VIDEO_5VIDEO_6






9
===>CHAPITRE 2
VIDEO_7VIDEO_8VIDEO_9



13
===>CHAPITRE 3
VIDEO_10VIDEO_11VIDEO_12VIDEO_13



[/SIZE]

Now, I want to display it but I can’t make it work.
Here’s what I did :


function DisplayList ():void {

        
        for (var j:int = 0; j<my_total; j++){
        

                ////// TITRE DE CHAPITRE //////
                
                var chapter_title = my_list[j].@TYPE;
                
                var chapter_txt:TextField = new TextField();
                chapter_txt.text = chapter_title;
                chapter_txt.y = 20*j;
                chapter_txt.wordWrap = false;
                addChild(chapter_txt);


                ////// TITRE DE VIDEO //////
                
                var video_title = my_list[j].@TITLE ;
                
                var video_txt:TextField = new TextField();
                video_txt.text = video_title;
                video_txt.x = 0*j;
                video_txt.y = 10*j;
                video_txt.wordWrap = false;
                addChild(video_txt);


 }

}

I’m kind of lost.

Thanks for helping me out
