Re: [flexcoders] Setting text on a text node in e4x

[Keith]

Here's simple example on how to set the text value of node in AS3
Not sure if that what you're looking for as far as with the reference to 
the node:

var doc=
<book>
    <toc/>
    <toc/>
    <page>Abc</page>
    <page>123</page>
    <page>XYZ</page>
    <page>Last page</page>   
    <index />
    <index />
</book>;

var targetNode:XML=doc.page[2];
//Reference afterwards:
trace("--------targetNode Before-------------");
trace(targetNode.toXMLString());


//Replacing the Text of the node:
targetNode.setChildren("Replacement page content");


//Reference afterwards:
trace("--------targetNode AFTER-------------");
trace(targetNode.toXMLString());


//The whole XML afterwards:
trace("--------targetNode AFTER-------------");
trace(doc.toXMLString());
