Flex Mobile read XML files

1. Declare the variables


private var myXML:XML;
private var XML_URL:String ="https://sites.google.com/site/way2db1/oca/create.xml";
private var myXMLURL:URLRequest;
private var myLoader:URLLoader;



2. In the required function, implement this logic:

myXML = new XML();
myXMLURL = new URLRequest(XML_URL);
myLoader = new URLLoader(myXMLURL);
myLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, xmlLoaded);

Note: Mostly done in init().

3. All the stuff which you wanted to do after loading the XML, place the code in xmlLoaded().


4. Parsing XML


Here is my XML
<root>
<base id="1">
  <empno></empno>
  <ename></ename>
</base>

<base  id="2">
  <empno></empno>
  <ename></ename>
</base>
</root>


a)  To find the no of main nodes in an XML, use
                myXML.base.length();


b) To find the empno from the XML, use
                myXML.base[0].empno;
                myXML.base[1].empno;


c) To work on base node 1, use
               var xmlList:XMLLIST = myXML.base.(@id="1");
