in your code, make the following change:
for (var k = 0; k<node_xml[j].childNodes.length; k++) {
tempValues.push(node_xml[j].childNodes
[k].firstChild.nodeValue);
}
what u were pushing into the temValues array were xmlnode objects,
not the
corresponding nodeValue strings. The drawing API methods dint
actually get
what they expected, Numbers, I mean :)

Hi,
I figured out that if I hardcode the values things work, but if I use
values from variables, nothing works.
When I trace the variable values, they trace properly, then why
cant I
use them dynamically???
Thanks for any help.
