RE: [Non-DoD Source] Filtering XML doc

[Kessler CTR Mark J]

You mean like using dot notation and walking down the nodes or filtering?  I 
use somethings similar with some e4x / xmllistcollections.  I just typed this 
off the top of my head so it might need to be checked.


var myXml:XML =
<parent>
    <Books>
        <Book name="something1" />
        <Book name="something2" />
        <Book name="something3" />
    </Books>
    <Magazines>
        <Magazine someproperty="item1" />
        <Magazine someproperty="item1" />
        <Magazine someproperty="item2" />
        <Magazine someproperty="item2" />
    </Magazines>
</parent>;


List of books:
myXml.Books.Book;

List of magazines:
myXml.Magazines.Magazine;

Match specific items (returns 2 item1 rows):
myXml.Magazines.Magazine.(@ someproperty == "item1");

Subject: [Non-DoD Source] Filtering XML doc

I have a nested XML and I want to select only these elements from it that
have a specific name at any level.
How can I do that?

Thanks
