I'm loading an XML that has grown quite large and putting the contents into one textbox. There were no issues when the XML was small but after it grew in size I noticed it started hanging FLASH and occasionally crashing it all together.
I have one loop inside another to structure the contents in the textbox the way I need it. It's the second loop that is causing the crash. Does anyone have a better suggestion for doing this?
Code:
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
headline[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
date[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
copy_intro[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[2].firstChild.nodeValue;
image_large[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[3].firstChild.nodeValue;
copy_full[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[4].firstChild.nodeValue;
txt_mc.txt.htmlText = adddate;
for(a=0; a<total; a++){
txt_mc.txt.htmlText += headline[a] +"\n"+date[a]+"\n"+copy_full[a];
}
}
Thanks for taking a moment to look at this, I'm not a natural coder so any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Best,
