Hey All, I'm having an issue that I was hoping someone can help me out with.
I need to populate a datagrid based on XML being returned to Flex. The structure of the XML is as follows: "<root> <lab id="2" title="Chemical Materials"> <assignment assignmentid="2" name="s2 s2" grade="B"/> <assignment assignmentid="4" name="s1 s1" grade="C"/> <assignment assignmentid="6" name="John Smith" grade="B"/> </lab> <lab id="8" title="BioChem"> <assignment assignmentid="3" name="s2 s2" grade="F"/> <assignment assignmentid="5" name="John Smith" grade="D"/> </lab> </root>" When this XML gets returned to Flex I need to throw it into a Datagrid for diaplay. The catch is there can be any number of columns in the datagrid becasue the assignments can be of different quantities. Here is the code that I am using to make the grid: "private function getGradebookSectionDb(event:ResultEvent):void{ var gradebookBySection:XMLList = event.result.lab; var cols:Array=new Array; for (var i:int=0;i<gradebookBySection.length();i++){ var col:DataGridColumn=new DataGridColumn(); col.headertext=gradebookbysection[...@title.toxmlstring(); col.dataField=gradebookBySection[i].children()....@grade.toxmlstring(); cols.push(col); gradebookDatagrid.columns=cols; gradebookDatagrid.visible=true; }" When I do this, the columns get created from the XML very nicely with the headers displaying correctly but there is no data showing up in the columns. I would like to get one of the attribute values in each column but for some reason nothing comes up. When I do a trace on the "col.datafield" I get the right information coming back in the trace but nothing shows up in the column. I would have just assigned the XML as a datapovider to the datagrid but as the amount of assignments returned can change, I saw this as my only option. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks!
