I need to create a dynamic XML request (not sure that is the right terminology). I've put a sample of what I need below. I need to turn XMLdata.test[0].elements(myTest); into var req:String = test[0].elements('myTest'); XMLdata[req]; anyone ever try that? Thanks for any help

I think it is a matter of scope the mc I am trying to affect (this[details+e.currentTarget.name]) is a texfield created in a function - so I am guessing it is not accesible outside of that function... there are multiple instances of these textfields... they are created in a loop like: var
