OK, so based on what I just picked out of the "E4X, regexp and user
input" thread, I tried to mix some XML and a regex to solve my problem,
but I didn't get too far, and again, really don't know what I'm doing
with regular expressions, and I'm not quite a pro at E4X yet.  I am
getting this error when I try and search on [EMAIL PROTECTED] attribute
values:

 "Filter operator not supported on type RegExp."

based on this code:

  var re:RegExp = new RegExp("^" + searchInput.text);
  var xmlListSearch:XMLList = xml.topics..topic.*.( re.(
attribute("title")));

Which is drawing from this XML:

  <data>
        <topics>
                <topic title="Coldplay's New Album" />
                <topic title="The Dark Knight" />
                <topic title="Arrested Development: The Movie" />
                ...etc.

Any ideas?  Thanks.
