You can iterate through an object and get its properties (and therefore the names) using a for..in loop.

 

for (var p : String in myObj)

{

  trace(“myObj[‘” + p + “’] = “ + myObj[p]);

}

 

It’s harder to take a given property and find out its own name, but you could try by taking the object of which it’s a prop and executing the for..in like above and just search for it.  Not efficient by any stretch.

You're trying to reference a node name?  I am not sure how to print
out node names without loading the data into an xml object.  I'm sure
it's possible.  It's very easy to access node values/attributes
declaritivelly without an XML object.  Not sure about the name though.
