[flexcoders] Re: problem in parsing xml return by HTTPservice, could it be namespace issue

2007-02-19 Thread paulwelling 
Hello,

Has anyone found out why the parsing of a XML document fails when
using a node's name (but succeeds when using an index [n]) when there
is a namespace definition in the node..?

var xml:XML = 
foo
   bargood/bar
   bar xmlns=http://model.gts.com;bad/bar
/foo

trace(xml..bar); //good
good

Returns both nodes if the namespace declaration is removed:
bargood/bar
barbad/bar


Can anyone tell me why?  Suggestions..?

Thanks,
Paul

 :: operator is the key.
 
 This works well for the defualt namespace. I still havent figured how
 to access an element whose namespace different then the default
 nameSpace and is not known.

  You try what I used to solve the same kind of problem
  
  event.result.record[0].myFieldName
  
  where my XML looks something like this
  
  records
  record
  myFeldNamemyValue/myFieldName
  /record
  /records
  
  Thanks to Tracy Spratt for revealing access to the 
  XML more directly via event.result !

   but when I try to use .. operator for marketValue node, I get null

  help.

I figured this out. Here is what worked for me.

var res:XML = event.result as XML;
var ns:Namespace = res.namespace();
var imgName:String  = res..ns::marketValue;

:: operator is the key.
