I've just spent the last 8 hours attempting to get an XML document bound
to a data provider, and fell into the following gotcha - my problem was
that the default xmlns on the document can't be defined. There may be
other factors involved here, but what was happening was even though I
was passing in a structure similar to yours below every XMLList property
would end up with something like root sids="58" xmlns="MyDocument">
(even though it wasn't passed in via the actual XML). I couldn't access
anything via .Child("module"), for example, until I had got rid of that
default.
While this might not necessarily be your problem, it certainly doesn't
help, and took two of us ages to track down. Needless to say, we won't
be making that mistake again, and after getting that all sorted it was
relatively painless to traverse the XML document of the elements we had
in our DOM.

Subject: [flexcoders] Changing Root Node attributes
Hello All,
I need your help again.
I make a call and get in return a XML. With this XML, i feed my tree's
dataprovider. It is something like this:
<root sids="58">
<module url="home" label="Home" sid="52"/>
<module url="grantees" label="Grantees" sid="53"/>
<module url="multimedia" label="Multimedia" sid="54"/>
<page label="Contact Us" id="2" redirect="contact" sid="55"/>
<page label="Privacy Policy" id="7" redirect="privacy" sid="56"/>
<page label="Apply for Grants" id="5" redirect="apply" sid="57"/>
</root>
The thing is, at some point i need to get the "sids" from the root
node (so far no problem, i'm using
XML(tree.dataProvider).attribute('sids').toXMLString() and it works)
but the catch is that i need to change it to 59 and i can't manage to
change it no matter what.
Any one could throw some ideas so i can solve my problem ? please? :P
thanks
Raf
