You cant have cdata or any tags inside an attribute, you should put this in a child tag of its own.
Jim -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Merrill, Jason Sent: 16 March 2006 17:09 To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: [Flashcoders] Question for XML Style Junkies My XML file takes the following form: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <home> <banner imageUrl="media/banner.jpg" x="0" y="0"/> <bar title="Home" x="10" y="0" width="750" height="30"/> <panels> <panel title="Message" x="10" y="10" height="150" width="250"> <button title="Read Article" action="switchTab"/> <content title="<![CDATA[Some<br>HTML Text in <br>here]]>"> <![CDATA[Lorem Ipsum Paragraph Text Here]]> </content> </panel> <panel title="HR Toolbox" x="220" y="10" height="150" width="150"> <button title="Send e-mail" action="sendEmail" param1="message"/> <content title="<![CDATA[Some<br>HTML Text in <br>here]]>"> <![CDATA[Lorem Ipsum Paragraph Text Here]]> </content> </panel> <panel> ...etc. ...etc. </panels> </home> However, after I load it into Flash, it gets truncated to: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <home> <banner imageUrl="media/banner.jpg" x="0" y="0" /> <bar title="Home" x="10" y="0" width="750" height="30"/> <panels> <panel title="Message" x="10" y="10" height="150" width="250"> <button title="Read Article" action="switchTab"/> </panel> </panels> </home> I am assuming the way I am using CDATA tags are throwing it off somehow. For example, I have a CDATA tag inside an attribute value under the Home/Panel/Panel[0]/Title attribute value and this is where it seems to break. Is this bad form and/or causing Flash to choke? If not, what could be causing this? If this is bad XML form, how would you reorganize it to work in Flash? --------------------------------------------------------------- FYI - FWIW: I am loading the XML in a standard way: var xmlObject = new XML(); xmlObject.ignoreWhite = true; xmlObject.onLoad = Delegate.create(this, loadSuccess); xmlObject.load("home.xml") and the delegate function just moves the playhead once the file is loaded - when I get to the frame after it's loaded, I do a trace on the XML and see the truncation as described. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Ideas?
