Maybe something like this:



your_xml= new XML();
your_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
your_xml.onLoad = function() {
trace(this)
var firstalbum = this.firstChild.childNodes[0];

}
your_xml.load("pathtoyourxmlfile.xml");

No problem...good luck with your application.

[javiadas]

thank, i have a trouble here, can you someone help me ??


var my_xml:XML = new XML();
my_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
my_xml.onLoad = function(success) {
xml_parser();
};
my_xml.load("discografia.xml");

var albums:Object = new Object();

function xml_parser(){
var total_discos = my_xml.firstChild.childNodes.length;
for (i=0;i<total_discos;i++){
var album = my_xml.firstChild.childNodes[i];
var ident = album.attributes
albums[i+1] = {id:ident.id, nombre:ident.nombre};
for (var aNode:XMLNode = my_xml.firstChild.childNodes[i].firstChild; aNode != null; aNode = aNode.nextSibling) {
id = aNode.attributes.id
pista = aNode.attributes.pista
audio = aNode.attributes.audio
}
}
variables();
}

function variables(){
for (var i in albums[1]) {
trace("albums."+i+" = "+albums[i]);
}
}


well the thing is that i cant se inside my ibject for example albums[1].id or something like that and it says that its undefined.

can someone help me ??

thanks

the correct syntax is:


albums[1].attributes.id

[javiadas]

hmmm ... ??
what im trying to do is to make albums an array of object, is that ok ??
then i have albums[1].id and albums[1].name and all the array but when i try to see the value its says that is undefined

[12051]

because you must use albums[1].attributes.id and albums[1].attributes.name

that's just the way it works bro!

[javiadas]

ok man let me try it, thanks

[12051]

I can't see the problem in your code though....

[javiadas]

if i run this script with the complete xml i generate the result is:

albums.id = undefined
albums.nombre = undefined

[12051]

maybe replace this:
var ident = album.attributes
with:
var ident = album[1].attributes

or

this:
var album = my_xml.firstChild.childNodes[i];
with:
var album = my_xml.firstChild.childNodes;
