Amidst the concern about lacking support for methods in the XML object outside of what is natively available in Flash 5 (Core DOM I think), I was wondering if anyone has worked on creating an extended set of methods that would include things like getElementsByName(), getAttributes(), or others.

I've been working on writing a getElementsByName() method but haven't quite hooked it up to the XML object yet... so far, it just acts as a function.

I'm also NOT a seasoned XML veteran by any means, so even if I did get one written, I don't know that it would be the correct implementation, per se.
