[RESOLVED] XML nodes problem
This is pretty basic , and I've done this before but some now now it doesn't seem to be working....
My xml looks like this :
<thing>
<title>blah </title>
<colors>
<color>red</color>
<color>gold</color>
<color>green</color>
</colors>
</thing>
Actionscript Code:
function ParseObject(printable:XML):void { //loop through all of the color child nodes. var colors:XMLList = printable.colors ; for each(var node in colors){ trace ( node.childNodes); ///produces nothing. for (var i = 0; i < node.childNodes.length; i++){ trace (node.childNodes[i]) ; trace("hey"); //produces nothing } }
colors is a valid xml object, when I trace (printable) I get the full xml tree in the console, and when I trace (colors) , I get the colors node. But it's not getting me each color.
That's what I need. clearly I'm not extracting the child nodes properly......
Any hints? I'm sure it's something obvious.

Ok, had to dig through some old code but I resolved this.
For anyone with the same question, here's the answer....
to get the first child I can simply do
colors.color[0]
and to loop through all I can do
for (var i=0 ; i< printable.colors.child("*").length(); i++) {

Actionscript Code:
var xml:XML=new XML( <thing> <title>blah </title> <colors> <color>red</color> <color>gold</color> <color>green</color> </colors> </thing>);
ParseObject(xml);
function ParseObject(printable:XML):void { //loop through all of the color child nodes. var colors:XMLList = printable.colors; for each (var node in colors) { trace(node.children().length()); var child=node.children(); trace(child);///produces nothing. for (var i = 0; i <child.length(); i++) { trace(child[i]); } } }
