Hi,
I’ve bee reading Through Senocular’s tutorial on XML/FLASH. I’ve attempted the following but have hit a snag. I have all the message parent, but am lost how to extract the individual children:
var to=
var from =
var body=
So I can assign each to a text field. Hear is what I done so far:
var message_xml:XML = new XML();
message_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
message_xml.onLoad = function(success) {
if (!success) {
trace("Document Failed To Load");
return;
}
// Error check - file okay?
if (this.status != 0) {
trace("The XML file was loaded, but was not well formed");
return;
}
// Error check - xml data okay?
if (this.firstChild.nodeName.toLowerCase() != "message") {
trace("Unexpected XML data: "+this.firstChild.nodeName);
return;
}
//extract message to an array
var message_arr = this.firstChild.childNodes;
for (var i = 0; i<message_arr.length; i++) {
var message = message_arr*.childNodes;
trace(message);
}
var to = message_arr*.firstChild;
for (var i = 0; i<message_arr*.firstChild; i++) {
trace(to);
}
};
message_xml.load("message.xml");
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<message>
<to>Disco Stu</to>
<from>Marge Simpson</from>
