Hi,

An attempt to dynamically assign text gathered from XML nodes has me stumped. I've the text field instances, but am at a loss how to proceed. Any help would be appreciated.

Code:
//Create XML Object
var aquentDoc:XML = new XML();
aquentDoc.ignoreWhite = true;
//event handler
aquentDoc.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
   if (!success) {
      trace("Failure Loading aquentDoc XML");
      return;
   }
   //validating the xml file
   if (this.status != 0) {
      trace("This xmlObject is not well-formed: "+this.status);
      return;
   }
   //Error check - xml data okay!
   if (this.firstChild.nodeName.toLowerCase() != "aquentdoc") {
      trace("Unexpected XML data: "+this.firstChild.nodeName);
      return;
   }
   //Extract header nodes into an array.
   var elements_arr = this.firstChild.childNodes;
   for (var i = 0; i<elements_arr.length; i++) {
      //trace(elements_arr[i]);
      if (elements_arr[i].attributes["id"] != null) {
         var headers = elements_arr[i].attributes["id"];
         //trace(headers);
      } else {
         var content = elements_arr[i];
         //trace(content);
      }
   }
};

Code:
//Displays the text fields correctly.
function assignText() {
   for (var p in this) {
      if (this[p] instanceof TextField) {
         //Show each field's name
         trace("found "+this[p]._name);
      }
   }
}

Code:
//Failed attempt at assigning text.
//This should be called from inside the onLoad handler.
function assignText() {
   for (var p in this) {
      if (this[p] instanceof TextField) {
         //Show each field's name
         trace("found "+this[p]._name);
      }
if(this[p]._name == "header01_text){
 this[p].text=elements_arr[i].attributes["id"];
}
