I try writing two comboboxes to facilitate selection of the following XML,
<data>
<state label="Texas" data="Texas">
<county label="Jones" data="123" />
<county label="Taylor" data="124" />
...
</state>
<state label="Virginia" data="Virginia">
<county label="Alexandria" data="223" />
<county label="Arlington" data="224" />
...
</state>
...
The first combo box is named _combo1 that is populated by state data, and I
want to get an XML or XMLList of the counties using AS3, I wonder whether I
can write it in E4X syntax that looks somewhat like
var selected:String = _combo1.selectedItem.toString();
var counties:XMLList = _myXml.state.(@label = {selected}).county;
I get a compiler error for the last line, and I have searched through some
E4X samples, didn't seem to find any help. Any advice?
Thanks!

P.S. Or should I use XmlViewCollection, Descriptor or things like that?
