Argh, now I'm trying to graph this stuff and I can't figure out how to
access the info. Maybe I should jsut throw it into an array
collection? I saw a post that you did that said put it into an
XMLListCollection...
This is what I got:
<mx:LineChart height="100%" width="100%" dataProvider="{myXML3}">
<mx:series>
<mx:LineSeries yField="HeartRateBpm"
xField="Time"
dataProvider="{myXML3}"/>
</mx:series>
<mx:verticalAxis>
<mx:LinearAxis id="chartLA" />
</mx:verticalAxis>
<mx:horizontalAxis>
<mx:DateTimeAxis />
</mx:horizontalAxis>
</mx:LineChart>
