Re: [Flashcoders] Filtering xml with E4X

[Kenneth Kawamoto]

You may want to try:

projectsXML.project.(tags.tag.contains("Website"))

Hello flashcoders,

I'm trying to work out how to filter the below XML (loaded into a var called "projectsXML") by the contents of the "tag" nodes, but can't quite get it working.

So for instance, how would I use an E4X expression to return an XMLList that contained only those projects which have a tag of "Website"?

Here's the xml:

<projects>
    <project>
        <title>My project</title>
        <tags>
            <tag>Website</tag>
        </tags>
    </project>
    <project>
        <title>Another project</title>
        <tags>
            <tag>Game</tag>
        </tags>
    </project>
    <project>
        <title>Yet another one</title>
        <tags>
            <tag>Website</tag>
            <tag>Game</tag>
            <tag>Application</tag>
        </tags>
    </project>
    <project>
        <title>And another</title>
        <tags>
            <tag>Game</tag>
            <tag>Website</tag>
        </tags>
    </project>
</projects>

Thanks,
Mark.
