[flexcoders] Re: Accessing XML child nodes in a LineChart

2009-02-03 Thread Greg Groves 
Thanks, Amy, that's what I ended up doing. Not too hard, but it does
seem to me I should be able to access the child nodes through the
dotted E4X syntax... maybe a feature request for future Flex
releases... :-)

Thanks again,

Greg

  Thanks, I'll look at that. I was hoping for an MXML solution (mainly

 The dataFunction has to be done in AS.  I think most of the rest you 
 can translate to MXML.  I just did the example that way because people 
 were complaining there wasn't a good example of doing it in as only.

I saw that one while googling for an answer. The problem is, it deals
with attributes but not child nodes, and that's where I'm having
problems. Thanks anyway.

I don't do much charting, but generally Flex treats attributes and child
nodes both as top-level properties of an item, like with labelField or
dataField.  Eitehr can access attrabutes or the text() value of child
nodes.
