Attached is the FLA made in MX 2004 pro and the XML…
What I’m trying to do is duplicate some main button movieClips for each <dept> node. When pressed these main buttons then show a second set of buttons for as many <menu> nodes there are. In the actionScript the displayMainButtons function is used to loop through the XML and display the Main buttons. With the other 2 “display” functions (displayFirstButton and displaySecondButton) I’m displaying another button for each <menu> node. These too works just fine, but the problem with writing it this way is that I have to write another “display” function for as many <dept> nodes there are. I’d like this to be written so it loops through it in one function so I can add as many <dept> nodes with as many <menu> nodes as I’d like without going back into the AS code to add more “display” functions. And as you can see, I had to do the same to delete the buttons. Any idea how to get this done the right way?
Thanks
