I gotcha! So what about adding children to that xml node? Do you
treat it just like a string or something? so If I wanted to add a
child to that node would it be something like this:
var newNode:XML = <myNode label={yourCollection[n]["label"]} id={
yourCollection[n]["id"]}>
newNode = newNode + <myNode label={yourCollection[n]["label"]} id={
yourCollection[n]["id"]}/>
I thought I saw some method called append in xml. I was hoping I
could create XMLNode(s) and do something like newNode.append(myNewXMLNode)
thanks for responding so fast!
