you would at least need to change the xml for these to work i think
so
<data1>Joe Doe</data1>
<data2>Anywhere USA</data2>
<data3>555-555- 5555</data3>
<mx:DataGrid dataProvider="{myXML}">
<mx:columns>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="{myXML.contact.data}"
headerText="{myXML.structure.data}"/>
</mx:columns>
</mx:DataGrid>

Subject: [flexcoders] xml data in a datagrid
This is probably simple for those that aren't flex newbies but my
flex books haven't arrived yet from Amazon and I am getting confused
by reading and searching on the web. What I have are xml document
that I don't control that describe their own structure. See the
simplified sample below:
<xml>
<adml version="0">
<structure>
<header>Name< /header>
<header>Address< /header>
<header>Phone< /header>
</structure>
<contact>
<data>Joe Doe</data>
<data>Anywhere USA</data>
<data>555-555- 5555</data>
</contact>
<contact>
<data>Joe Doe</data>
<data>Anywhere USA</data>
<data>555-555- 5555</data>
</contact>
I want to make the <structure> elements the data grid column headers
and have each of the <data> items rendered in the correct column.
Can anyone provide a pointer as to how to proceed? Thanks!
