very basic XML error.

[λ]

I'm trying to get XML to work in Flash, and I just can't make it work :-\

I tried making something more advanced, but it just failed miserably, so for now I'm settling for something simpler.



myXml = new XML();
myXml.load("myxml.xml");
myXml.ignoreWhite = true;
myXml.onLoad = function() {
trace(myXml.firstChild.nodeValue);
};



<myxml>Hello</myxml>


I just see null in the output window...

[kode]

myXml.onLoad = function() {
trace(myXml.firstChild.firstChild);
};

1) Your XML file cannot just be 1 node, it has to have a parent node that houses the childnodes...


<parentnode>
<myxml>Hello</myxml>
</parentnode>

Then after you fix that change myXml.firstChild.nodeValue to myXml.firstChild.firstChild

You can read up on what nodeValue really is in the AS Reference in Flash MX.
