The xml file is already loaded and I can target the node, but I cannot get the child nodes to add in combobox.
Code:
_root.sliderthree.ChooseSize.addItem([+sizes]);
Code:
+sizes = _root.xmlList.firstChild.childNodes[i].childNodes[j+18].firstChild;
Below is my xml file
Code:

I also found this but still had problems when I changed thisXML
Code:
function LoadCombo(success) {
if (success) {
//set variables
var BaseNode=thisXML.childNodes[0];
var ComboSizes = new Array();
var ComboURLs = new Array();
var ThisNode;
//get sites information
for (i=0; i < BaseNode.childNodes.length; i++) {
ThisNode = BaseNode.childNodes[i];
ComboSizes[i] = ThisNode.attributes["shoesizeName"];
ComboURLs[i] = ThisNode.attributes["shoesizeURL"];
//add to combo box
ChooseSize.addItem(ComboSizes[i],ComboURLs[i]);
ChooseSize.text="Select Size";
}
}
}
I have been working on this for 4 days with no luck can someone please help me out. Thanks

PHP Code:
bag = new XML();
bag.ignoreWhite = true;
bag.load("bag.xml");
bag.onLoad = function(){
a = this.firstChild.childNodes;
for(b = a[0].firstChild; b != null; b = b.nextSibling) {
if(b.nodeName == "AllSizes"){
for(var n=0;n!=b.childNodes.length;n++){
var1 = b.childNodes[n].attributes.shoesizeName;
var2 = b.childNodes[n].attributes.siteURL;
ChooseSize.addItem({label:var1, data:var2});
} // end for(n)
} // end if
} // end for(b)
}; // end onLoad
ChooseSize.addItemAt(0,{label:"Select Size", data:0});
// combobox change event handler
var cb:Object = new Object();
cb.change = function(obj:Object) {
trace(obj.target.selectedItem.label);
trace(obj.target.selectedItem.data);
};
ChooseSize.addEventListener("change", cb);

thank modified dog
I tried the code but I just got 2 "Select Size" in combobox.:confused:
I changed the root of the ChooseSize but thats all. Any ideas modified dog?
PHP Code:
xmlList.onLoad = function() {
a = this.firstChild.childNodes;
for (b=a[0].firstChild; b != null; b=b.nextSibling) {
if (b.nodeName == "AllSizes") {
for (var n = 0; n != b.childNodes.length; n++) {
var1 = b.childNodes[n].attributes.shoesizeName;
var2 = b.childNodes[n].attributes.siteURL;
_root.sliderthree.ChooseSize.addItem({label:var1, data:var2});
}
// end for(n)
}
// end if
}
// end for(b)
};
// end onLoad
_root.sliderthree.ChooseSize.addItemAt(0, {label:"Select Size", data:0});
// combobox change event handler
var cb:Object = new Object();
cb.change = function(obj:Object) {
trace(obj.target.selectedItem.label);
trace(obj.target.selectedItem.data);
};
_root.sliderthree.ChooseSize.addEventListener("change", cb);

That works but this reloads my xml, which I don't want as I want the sizes for that product. When I call for the combobox info I am already in that product node (Bag 1). By reloading the xml I lose focus on the product node.
When I add another product (Bag 2) to my xml the combobox just loads the sizes from (Bag 1)

i'm not all together clear on the first part of your post
regarding reloading.
to add products, i have included a file that pushes
the node attributes into arrays, and feeds the content
in the array to the combobox.
two buttons switch between shoes and rings in this example.
i doubt its exactly where your headed, but hope you can
at least make use of the method :)

Sorry if I was unclear, maybe a bit more info might help.
My logic tell me it need to be in the main searcher function I have.
The searcher function, well searches a product then displays results with a button within that result. That button sends the product info to the product page with where the combobox is. I have tried to put the code inside this function, but have had no luck.
PHP Code:
scene = 2;
_root.slidertwo.myScroller.setStyle("borderStyle", "none");
function mySearcher() {
//next line turns off button
_root.slidertwo.myScroller.spContentHolder.Searcher.productbtn._visible = true;
_root.slidertwo.status = "Searching...";
//This code removes possible existing movie duplicates so it can cleanly build a new list.
//It removes every movie except the main base Searcher movie.
for (mc in _root.slidertwo.myScroller.spContentHolder) {
tempName = ""+spContentHolder[mc];
if (tempName.charAt(tempName.length-1)<>"r") {
_root.slidertwo.myScroller.spContentHolder[mc].removeMovieClip();
}
}
//Create the search word array by sending everything to lowercase.
tempSearch = SearchField.toLowerCase();
if (tempSearch.charAt(tempSearch.length-1) == " ") {
do {
tempSearch = tempSearch.substring(0, tempSearch.length-1);
} while (tempSearch.charAt(tempSearch.length-1) == " ");
}
searchwords = tempSearch.split(" ");
//This code sets a limit of 3 words to search by. The else is the actual search Engine.
if (searchwords.length>3) {
_root.slidertwo.myScroller.spContentHolder.Searcher.searchtext = "Please limit your search to 3 words or less.";
_root.slidertwo.myScroller.spContentHolder.Searcher.mymenu = new Object();
_root.slidertwo.myScroller.spContentHolder.Searcher.searchtext = "";
_root.slidertwo.myScroller.spContentHolder.Searcher.description = "";

_root.slidertwo.myScroller.spContentHolder.Searcher.menu = _root.slidertwo.myScroller.spContentHolder.Searcher.mymenu.menuoff.toString();
