[Flashcoders] Recursive:Part II

[Lehr, Theodore]

So I have this xml:

<allPeople>
    <person>
          <personFirstName>Bob</personFirstName>
          <personLastName>Smith</personLastName>
          <person>
               <personFirstName>Timmy</personFirstName>
               <personLastName>Smith</personLastName>
          </person>
          <person> 
               <personFirstName>Jenny</personFirstName>
               <personLastName>Smith</personLastName>
          </person>
    </person>
    <person>
          <personFirstName>Tom</personFirstName>
          <personLastName>Williams</personLastName>
          <person> 
               <personFirstName>Sa</personFirstName>
               <personLastName>Williams</personLastName>
          </person>
    </person>

To start I am just trying to recursively go through this to grab the first 
names. I am trying:

createPeople(peopleXML)

function createPeople (_xml:*):void
{
      var xmlList:XMLList-_xml.children();

      for each (var fn_xml in xmlList) {
           createChart(fn_xml);
           trace(item_xml);
       }
}


I am wondering - am I on the right track? Does the xml look well-formed for 
doing what I am trying to do?

Thanks!
