RE: [Flashcoders] xml parsing problem

2006-10-27 Thread Merrill, Jason 
Can you provide some usage instructions (i.e. what the arguments n and r
are for)?

Steven,

It would be cool if you made a version of that that was mtasc compatible...

You might want to try using my XMLParser class. It translates the XML into
ActionScript-friendly arrays/objects.

Subject: [Flashcoders] xml parsing problem

I'm having trouble grabbing the right value from a node any help would be
awesome.. I can't figure out where to increment as I'm going through my loop
for the sub items.

node structure below 





sub item name goes here
sub item URL goes here
_self



sub item name goes here # 2
sub item URL # 2
_self









AS below 

onClipEvent(load){
function ExpandData(turbo){
var turboItem = turbo.firstChild.childNodes; var subItem =
turbo.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes;
trace("number of main section nodes" + turbo.firstChild.childNodes.length);
// main section count
for (var i = 0; i < turboItem.length; i++){
  var turbo = turboItem[i];
// running through main nodes
  mainNavName = turbo.attributes.name;
  mainNavUrl = turbo.attributes.url;
  mainNavWindow = turbo.attributes.window;
  mainNavOn = turbo.attributes.open; // set to true or false

trace("mainNaveName = " + mainNavName);
trace("mainNaveURL = " + mainNavURL);
trace("mainNaveWindow = " + mainNavWindow); trace("mainNaveOn = " +
mainNavOn);

  if( turbo.childNodes.length >=1){
   trace("this node has subcontent");
   trace("number of subcontent nodes = "+ turbo.childNodes.length);

turboChild = turbo.firstChild.firstChild;
trace(" ");
trace("total times to loop = " + turbo.childNodes.length);


   for (var n = 0; n < turbo.childNodes.length; n++){
trace("Subcounter incremental value = " + n);

/ THESE NEED TO BE INCRIMENTED

trace(turboChild.firstChild.nodeValue); // returns sub item name
trace(turboChild.nextSibling.firstChild.nodeValue); // returns sub item
URL
trace(turboChild.nextSibling.nextSibling.firstChild.nodeValue); //
returns sub itemWindow
   }
 }
 trace(" ");
  }

}

var turbo = new XML();
turbo.ignoreWhite = true;
turbo.onLoad = function(success){
 if (success) ExpandData(this);
 else trace("Error loading XML file");
}
turbo.load("netnav.xml");  // what my xml is called that is posted above
stop(); }

Re: [Flashcoders] xml parsing problem

2006-10-27 Thread Julien V. 

Bill,
Take a look at kirupa's XML guide here:
http://www.kirupa.com/web/xml/XMLwayAround2.htm

I also came across the same problem some time ago. I decided not to play 
with siblings because our xml schema (especially the order of the 
sibling nodes) couldn't be predictable. So I went to a custom parsing 
process based on the nodeName of each child node of my sibling nodes.


Something like:

var subItemObject:Object = {};
var subItemChildNodes:Array = subItemNode.childNodes;
for (var i:Number = 0; i < subItemChildNodes.length; i++) {
  var attributeNode:XMLNode = subItemChildNodes[i];
  var attrName:String = attributeNode.nodeName;
  var attrValue:String = attributeNode.firstChild.nodeValue;
  subItemObject[attrName] = attrValue;
}

Hope it helps,

Julien Vignali
