Hello all! I'm creating a charting application in Flex and I have been given XML in the following format... <dc> <r a="x1" b="y1" c=z1" /> <r a="x1" b="y1" c=z1" /> <r a="x1" b="y2" c=z2" /> <r a="x1" b="y2" c=z2" /> </dc> I need to COUNT the number of nodes/rows that have a value of "x1" for attribute a, and say..."y2" and "y1" for attribute b, etc., so I can aggregate and chart them. Anyone know of an efficient and effective way of doing this in ActionScript 3? Thanks to all in advance! David
