Hi All
Guys This is regarding the problem I had few days back. I made
filtering of the List partially working for my app after taking some
help from this group, but I realize a bug in my program. I am making
rest calls to load data in form of XML in List. I need to apply filter
on this list. Depending upon the text entered in the text box , the
list should filter. Now my problem is that the filter is working if
user types the id of my XML node, however I want my code to go through
all the XML file and checks if the entered text matches the attribute
named friendly name and will filter depending upon the friendly name.
Please help me out, Below is the code and I would appreciate if
someone gives me right direction to make it completely working, Please
let me know also if the code is not documented correctly to make it
more sense
Thanks
Anuj
