Hello again forum, I’m still working in flash/XML project and every time I have a question about it, now it went very deep and the answer of this question is my only alternative.
ok. so I have my XML document which I load in flash, now in flash I want to scope a spescific tag of my xml document with a variable.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<company>
<marketing>
<employeeOffice>
<employee name="employee1" salary = "1000"/>
<employee name="employee2" salary = "1100"/>
<employee name="employee3" salary = "1200"/>
<employee name="employee4" salary = "1300"/>
<employee name="employee5" salary = "1400"/>
</employeeOffice>
<employeeRoad>
<employee name="employee1" salary = "1000"/>
<employee name="employee2" salary = "1100"/>
<employee name="employee3" salary = "1200"/>
<employee name="employee4" salary = "1300"/>
<employee name="employee5" salary = "1400"/>
</employeeRoad>
</marketing>
<production>
<employeeOffice>
<employee name="employee1" salary = "1000"/>
<employee name="employee2" salary = "1100"/>
<employee name="employee3" salary = "1200"/>

</employeeRoad>
</production>
<sales>
<employeeOffice>
<employee name="employee1" salary = "1000"/>
<employee name="employee2" salary = "1100"/>
<employee name="employee3" salary = "1200"/>
<employee name="employee4" salary = "1300"/>
<employee name="employee5" salary = "1400"/>
</employeeOffice>
<employeeRoad>
<employee name="employee1" salary = "1000"/>
<employee name="employee2" salary = "1100"/>
<employee name="employee3" salary = "1200"/>
<employee name="employee4" salary = "1300"/>
<employee name="employee5" salary = "1400"/>
</employeeRoad>
</sales>
</company>
Let’s say that my var is
var whichDepartment = marketing;
and from there I can target departement and then look for the information that is within this XML element.
I know that this is not possible in AS2 and I want to know if there is some way to get something similar…
var whichDepartment_01= myXML.firstChild.whichDepartmen.childNodes.nodesName;
Any help will be appreciated
