I have a hunk of XML that I have loaded into an XMLListCollection. It describes a training course catalog. I'm trying to write a function to return the title of a course when passed the "KeyID" of a specific course instance, and am running into all sorts of problems (it ain't working being the worst of them).
Here's the XML:
<catalog>
<trainingEvent
keyID="1" title="Programming 101" eventCost="499.99">
<trainingEventInstance keyID="1"
trainingEventID="1" location="Houston" eventDate="02/11/2007"
instanceCost="499.99" />
<trainingEventInstance keyID="2" trainingEventID="1"
location="Houston" eventDate="04/19/2007" instanceCost="499.99" />
<trainingEventInstance keyID="3"
trainingEventID="1" location="Las Vegas" eventDate="04/19/2007"
instanceCost="299.99" />
</trainingEvent>
<trainingEvent keyID="2" title="Miter Saw
Safety" eventCost="300.00">
<trainingEventInstance keyID="4" trainingEventID="2"
location="Houston" eventDate="12/25/2006" instanceCost="300.00" />
</trainingEvent>
</catalog>
... it's loaded into an XMLListCollection called myCollection using HTTP service with resultFormat=e4x
I'm trying to ignore the trainingEventID attribute, since it might be going away. I was trying to do some e4x magik to find the title like this, where the parameter is the KeyID of the trainingEventInstance:
public function getCourseTitle(
instanceID:Number ):String {
return
myCollection.source.trainingEvent.trainingEventInstance.(@keyID ==
instanceID).parent()[EMAIL PROTECTED];
}
so when the function is passed 4, it returns "Miter Saw Safety"
Am I doing something wrong? Can I not e4x using the "source" property? Any thoughts? Thanks!
