Hey,

I need to parse an XML feed so it's readable by an AS2 project. I want to use E4X and AS3 for all the parsing and simply load the parsed out document to AS2. Can flash send AS3 code to AS2...

Thanks that was very helpful! Works perfectly now


for each(var bXML:XML in aXML)

{

var str:String = aXML;
var re:RegExp = /(,)/
var results:Array = str.split(re);

I have a pretty simple question, how do I reference an individual word in an XML node. For example


<tag>word1 , word2 , word 3 , word 4, word5</tag>

where I want to refer to all these tags...

Thanks got it to work after hours of trial by doing this:

for each(var aXML:XML in myXML.Elements)
{
aXML.setName("a");
aXML.setChildren(aXML.a.*);
}

trace(myXML.toXMLString());

I have

level 1: <Element>
level 2: <a>some content</a>
</Element>

<a> is nested in <Element> and I need to delete <Element> without deleting <a>. So basically I want <a> to be the...

Thanks sstalder, lead developer changed the behavior - so I can just call the variable itself without worrying about flashvars. It's handled on the server side. It works perfectly now.

I figured out that I could do a replace() call. But I get an error when I try it,

TypeError: Error #1086: The replace method only works on lists containing one item.

So I need help looping...

I'm having trouble figuring out how to call an XML tag itself (not the value of the tag). I have a program that reads data from specifically named tags. I.E the program understands the tag <image>...

Thanks for your help, I want to test this out. How do I update it to include the xml info in a textbox on the stage instead of in a trace statement?

I have a test app in AS2 working made up of the following:


xml = new XML();
xml.load(cubeFeedURL);
xml.onLoad = function(){
info_txt.text = xml;
}

I have an XML file on a site that I need to call from a flash movie. The XML file is packaged into a parameter, its actual url is generated dynamically and cant be called directly so instead of...

This didnt work but I improvised. I used the first bit of code and then manually placed a movie clip on the stage with the instance name "clip" and this works.

Thanks! This is exactly what I needed. But is there a way to make the clickable area a movie clip rather then use the drawing api. It seems limited, I want to be able to overlay a movie clip on top...
