Have you tried the toString or toXMLString for this - check the XML class for the proper function name...

Hi Matt,
No, afraid not.. I actually use the select1 variable elsewhere, so it's not
just that trace which is the problem.

Thanks for the suggestion though!

Does it make a difference if you write the trace as :

trace("formData="+formData);
trace("select1:"+ select1);

Hi,
I've come across this a few times in my own code, but haven't seen it
mentioned online - though it's a difficult thing to google for.

In the following function, if the trace at the top is present, formData
traces a load of XML and select1 also traces a load of XML.

If I comment out the top trace, formData still traces the same pile of
XML
but select1 traces null!

public function testMakeModelFilterWorks():void {

 trace("");
 default xml namespace  = NAMESPACE;

var select1:XML = formData..select1[2];
trace("formData=", formData);
 trace("select1:", select1);

// etc
default xml namespace = null;
}

Any ideas? I'm getting fed up of leaving 'trace("");//don't delete me' at
the top of functions.
(I don't think it's a timing thing, if I put a 100000-item
increment-a-variable loop in there instead of a trace the E4X still
fails.)
