I just ran the code snippet below, and everything shows up in the Alert boxes as expected. The xml is a copy and paste from yesterday's posts. I noticed before you posted this you had a significantly different XML snippet. Perhaps the server is returning something different than what you think you're getting? Regardless, this code works -- the second alert shows the XMLList for the column names that you are probably trying to get at.
I'd say start tracing at e.result again to double check the XML returned by the server. var x:XML = <loginResponse xmlns="http://www.newatlanta.com/bluedragon/cfc/prmc/PRMCProjects/edu/umich/security" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"> <loginResult> <columnList xmlns="http://www.newatlanta.com/bluedragon"> <string>uniqname</string> <string>role</string> <string>firstName</string> <string>lastName</string> </columnList> <data xmlns="http://www.newatlanta.com/bluedragon"> <ArrayOfAnyType> <anyType xsi:type="xsd:string">wkolcz</anyType> <anyType xsi:type="xsd:string">admin</anyType> <anyType xsi:type="xsd:string">Wally</anyType> <anyType xsi:type="xsd:string">Kolcz</anyType> </ArrayOfAnyType> </data> </loginResult> </loginResponse>; default xml namespace = "http://www.newatlanta.com/bluedragon/cfc/prmc/PRMCProjects/edu/umich/security"; var ns1:Namespace = new Namespace("http://www.newatlanta.com/bluedragon"); Alert.show(x.loginResult.ns1::columnList.toXMLString()); var xlColumns:XMLList = x.loginResult.ns1::columnList.ns1::string; Alert.show(xlColumns.toXMLString()); HTH, Ryan -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] on behalf of Wally Kolcz Sent: Tue 2/3/2009 10:32 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [flexcoders] XML walkdown Help This is the code i am using.

Something like: default xml namespace = "http://www.newatlanta.com/bluedragon/cfc/prmc/PRMCProjects/edu/umich/security"; var ns1:Namespace = new Namespace("http://www.newatlanta.com/bluedragon");trace(xmlResult.loginResult.ns1::columnList.toXMLString()); Even though the namespaces share the same base URL ("http://www.newatlanta.com/bluedragon"), the XML processing model is unaware and doesn't care - all it sees is unique strings, each of which defines a separate namespace using the xmlns attribute declaration.

You can define a default" namespace, and not have to use the prefix in all of the expressions.default xml namespace = "http://www.newatlanta.com/bluedragon/cfc/prmc/PRMCProjects/edu/umich/security "; But you will still need to get the expression right.

The default namespace is http://www.newatlanta.com/bluedragon/cfc/prmc/PRMCProjects/edu/umich/security", so you need to use this when drilling down.
