Xml data

1

Hey!

I’m trying to load text from an xml file into flash. Thats working fine only problem is I want to load all of the data into flash. Right now it’s only loading the first “node”??.

here’s the code


iArray = new Array();
my_xml = new XML();
my_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
my_xml.onLoad = function(loaded) {
    if (loaded) {
        var gallery = my_xml.firstChild.childNodes;
        for (i=0; i<gallery.length; i++) {
            var iArray = gallery*.attributes.title;
            
            myText.text = iArray;
            trace("titled "+iArray);
        }
        
    }
};
my_xml.load("test.xml");


myText.html = true;
myText.wordWrap = true;
myText.multiline = true;
myText.autoSize = true;
myText.label.condenseWhite = true;

here’s what’s in the xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<gallery>
<image title="school: an institution for educating children : Ryder's children did not go to school at all : "/>
<image title="garden: a piece of ground, often near a house, used for growing flowers, fruit, or vegetables. "/>
<image title="shop: a building or part of a building where goods or services are sold; a store : a card shop"/>

</gallery>

thanks

Yeah I’ve looked at that already. Didn’t explain how to show all of the information in the xml.

vas? this aint rocket science

xmlNode = this.firstChild;
var videos:Array = xmlNode.childNodes;
total = videos.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {

    videoList* = videos*.attributes.url;

}

get rid of the following:P

myText.[COLOR=#0000ff]html[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#000000]true[/COLOR];

myText.[COLOR=#0000ff]autoSize[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#000000]true[/COLOR];
myText.[COLOR=#000080]label[/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000ff]condenseWhite[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#000000]true[/COLOR];

I believe this is what you are looking for …
ActionScript Code:
[LEFT]my_xml = [COLOR=#000000]new[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]XML[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR];
my_xml.[COLOR=#0000ff]ignoreWhite[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#000000]true[/COLOR];

[COLOR=#000000]var[/COLOR] output:[COLOR=#0000ff]String[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#ff0000]""[/COLOR];

my_xml.[COLOR=#0000ff]onLoad[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#000000]function[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000:Void[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]{[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#0000ff]if[/COLOR] COLOR=#000000[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]{[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000]var[/COLOR] gallery = my_xml.[COLOR=#0000ff]firstChild[/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000ff]childNodes[/COLOR];
[COLOR=#0000ff]for[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]([/COLOR]i=[COLOR=#000080]0[/COLOR]; i<gallery.[COLOR=#0000ff]length[/COLOR]; i++[COLOR=#000000])[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]{[/COLOR]
output += gallery[COLOR=#000000][[/COLOR]i[COLOR=#000000]][/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000ff]childNodes[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000][[/COLOR][COLOR=#000080]0[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]][/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000ff]firstChild[/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000ff]nodeValue[/COLOR];
output += [COLOR=#ff0000]"[COLOR=#000099]**
[/COLOR][COLOR=#000099]
**[/COLOR]"[/COLOR];
[COLOR=#808080]//[/COLOR]
myText.[COLOR=#0000ff]htmlText[/COLOR] = output;
[COLOR=#000000]}[/COLOR]

[COLOR=#000000]}[/COLOR]

[COLOR=#000000]}[/COLOR];
my_xml.[COLOR=#0000ff]load[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR];

myText.[COLOR=#0000ff]html[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#000000]true[/COLOR];
myText.[COLOR=#0000ff]multiline[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#000000]true[/COLOR];
myText.[COLOR=#0000ff]autoSize[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#000000]true[/COLOR];
[/LEFT]

then in your XML



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<gallery>
<image > 
    <title>school an institution for educating children : Ryder's children did not go to school at all </title>
</image>

<image > 
    <title>garden: a piece of ground, often near a house, used for growing flowers, fruit, or vegetables.</title>
</image>

<image > 
    <title>shop: a building or part of a building where goods or services are sold; a store : a card shop</title>
</image>
