RE: [flexcoders] Binding chart to XML

[Ely Greenfield]

In E4X parlance, attributes are referred to by prefixing their name with @.  i.e., to get the val of the first item in your code, you would write:   [EMAIL PROTECTED];   So to have a data component (chart, list, etc) pull a value from an attribute, you need to do the same:   <PieSeries field="@val" />   Ely.   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Daniel Tuppeny Sent: Wednesday, June 21, 2006 4:11 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Binding chart to XML I'm trying to bind a chart to an XML document, like this: /* Script */ var sXML:String = '\ <data>\ <item name="Aaa" val="6" />\ <item name="Bbb" val="46" />\ <item name="Ccc" val="16" />\ </data>\ '; gXMLDoc = mx.utils.XMLUtil.createXMLDocument(sXML); pie.dataProvider = gXMLDoc.firstChild.childNodes; /* End of Script */ And my series looks like this: <mx:PieSeries labelPosition="callout" field="val"> But I keep getting the error: "Property val not found on flash.xml.XMLNode and there is no default value". What am I doing wrong?
