Re: [Flashcoders] RE: retreieving a node that contains a specific attribute from an XML list

You can pick nodes by adding a comparison into your XML path

Conteudo.(@id == link) will give you the correct node too

Hi,

thank you all.

I've managed to do it like this, based on what Cor wrote me:

function clickItemTitle(e:Event):void {
   _link = String(e.target.frameLink);

   var node:int;

   for (var i:Number = 0; i < conteudo.length(); i++)
   {
   if (conteudo[...@id == _link)
   {
   node = i;
   }
   }
   trace ("node: " + node);


then I just use conteudo[node] to access the content.

I was trying to do that without using a for loop ,  but maybe it
wouldn't be possible. anyway I believe there's no need to avoid a loop
here, even if there's 1200 nodes in my XML, right?

Allandt, I actually didn't understand the use of toXMLString(), at
least in this situation..

cheers!

also if you're tracing xml, you could try trace(myXML.toXMLString());
which will make sure that even the root node of the xml is traced

from an XML list.

I have an XMLList  and I would like to retrieve a node in this list
that contain a specfic attribute.

here is how my XMLlist "conteudo" is organized. trace (conteudo)
throws:


Apresentação
 (lots of text...)


Apresentação
 (lots of text...)

etc...

I've tried the following ways:

//gets all nodes that contain the attribue "id".  that is , the  
same

as trace(conteudo), cause every node contain an
//  "id" attribute. i don't need them all to contain the
attribute, but i've made so, trying to avoid errors. so there a lot  
of

//  nodes in which the "id" attribute is equal to "" .
//trace (conteudo.(hasOwnProperty("@id"));

//this one doesn't throws an error, but doesn't retrieve anything
//trace (conteudo.(hasOwnProperty("@id" == "apresentacao")));

//throws the error:   ReferenceError: Error #1065: A variá 
vel

apresentacao não foi definida. (variable not defined)
//trace (conteudo.(hasOwnProperty("@id" == apresentacao)));

//  same reference error...
//trace (conteudo.(hasOwnProperty(@id == "apresentacao")));

//   why it doesn't work like this? same reference errpr
//trace ("node i want: " + conteudo.(@id == "apresentacao"));

//  this one doesn't throws an error, but doesn't retrieve
anything
//trace ("vamo ve: " + conteudo.("@id" == "apresentacao"));

//throws all the attributes "@id" that exist inside the xmllist,
concatenated
//trace ("" + conteu...@id);

//again, here it throws all the attributes "@id" that exist  
inside

the xmllist , concatenated
//if (conteudo.(hasOwnProperty("@id" == "apresentacao")))
//{
//trace ("tem o id: ");
//trace (conteu...@id);
//}

help please!!
