    node length

    I'm trying to use EX4 built in looping to find the length of a list of items.
    here is the xml:
    Code:
    <display name="image1" type="image"> 
    <src>dev/img/homeGroup1.jpg</src>
    </display>
    <display name="image2" type="image"> 
    <src>dev/img/homeGroup2.jpg</src>
    </display>
    <display name="image3" type="image"> 
    <src>dev/img/homeGroup3.jpg</src>
    </display>
    <display name="image4" type="image"> 
    <src>dev/img/homeGroup4.jpg</src>
    </display>
    Actionscript Code:
    var max:Number = config..*.( attribute( "type" ) == "image")[0].length();

    Why would the above not work.

    In what way is it not working? error messages? unexpected output?

    Is config defined? Have you tried using the @ attribute syntax instead of the attribute function? Since you have [0] at the end, you are getting a single node and the length should return 1.

    5TonsOfFlax thanks I woke up this morning and realized the [0] was screwing me up.

    Thanks
