Hi there,
I think I have a simple question, but I have not been able to figure this out.
I have an XML file that I am importing in from a blog.
Some of the <item> tags have <enclosure> tags, and some do not.
I want AS3 to test for the presence of an <enclosure> tag, and if it exists,
get the URL.
However, if it does not exist, I want AS3 to do nothing, or return empty.
Unfortunately, what is happening is this: If AS3 does not find an <enclosure>
tag in a
particular <item>, it goes to the next item to look for it. This has the
unhappy
consequence of associating an <enclosure> with an <item> that it does not
belong with.
Furthermore, when AS3 reaches the end of the list, it decides that the last
<items> do not
have <enclosure> tags because it has used up all of the <enclosure> tags in the
XML. So
all of my "no enclosure" messages are at the bottom.
Here is the code:
var myxml = new XML(xmlclean);
var il:XMLList = myxml.channel.item;
for (var i:uint = 0; i<il.length(); i++) {
if(myxml.channel.item.enclosure[i])
{
trace([EMAIL PROTECTED]);
}
else
{
trace("no enclosure");
}
Thanks for your help! I tried to find an answer by searching the archives, but
they returned
more than 5000 messages for "XML" and even "XML enclosure."
