Hi gang,
I'm having difficulty parsing an xml file into a multidimensional
array and was wondering if anyone could see why the following isn't
working... My guess is that an object variable can't be an array?
XML Sample
----------------------------------------------------------------------
<list>
<cat id="4">
<name>Art Glass</name>
<notes></notes>
<mediums>
<medium id="18">
<name>Drypoint</name>
<notes></notes>
<img>media/18_medium_tn.jpg</img>
</medium>
</mediums>
</cat>
</list>
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Actionscript
----------------------------------------------------------------------
var arr:Array = xml.firstChild.childNodes;
for(var i:Number = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
var item:Object = new Object();
item.id = arr[i].attributes.id;
item.name = arr[i].firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue;
item.notes = arr[i].firstChild.nextSibling.firstChild.nodeValue;
/***** this part isn't working *******/
item.mediums = new Array();
if(arr[i].firstChild.nextSibling.nextSibling.hasChildNodes()) {
var m:Array =
arr[i].firstChild.nextSibling.nextSibling.childNodes;
for(var i_m:Number = 0; i_m < m.length; i_m++) {
item.mediums[item.mediums.length]['id'] =
m[i_m].attributes.id;
item.mediums[item.mediums.length]['name'] = m
[i_m].firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue;
item.mediums[item.mediums.length]['notes'] = m
[i_m].firstChild.nextSibling.firstChild.nodeValue;
item.mediums[item.mediums.length]['img'] = m
[i_m].firstChild.nextSibling.nextSibling.firstChild.nodeValue;
}
}
/***** /this part isn't working *******/
}
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks for your help guys!
Best,
Mike D
