I've just gotten the libraries, and it is exactly as I expected.
selectNodes returns an Array of XMLNode-objects. Even the notion of
/text() is just to get the node, which has no name, as it is a textnode
- but it does not mean, that it will return the text. The function will
still return an array of XMLNode-objects. So in order to actually get
the text, you need to select the corrent index in the array, and then
get the nodeValue from the XMLNode. given:
var nodes:Array = XPath.selectNodes(my_xml, "/pathto[1]/xml/text()");
var textnode:XMLNode = XMLNode(nodes[0]);
var text:String = textnode.nodeValue;
That would be the proper way to do this perfectly and correctly. And
rather OOP and nice too :)
