[flexcoders] filter out empty rows

2010-01-31 Thread cvsikh 
Hi,

I have a dynamically generated xml which has some empty nodes.  These nodes 
cause blank rows in a tilelist.

Is there a way to filter out these nodes?  For example, if the node 'name' is 
null, hide it from the tilelist?

This is my sample xml:

galleries
 photo
  sourcefile1.jpg/source 
  name / 
  descDesc 1/desc 
  height800/height 
  width1280/width 
  /photo
 photo
  sourcefile2.jpg/source 
  name / 
  desc /
  height800/height 
  width1280/width 
  /photo
/galleries

Thanks!

There are three ways I know of to handle this.  First, change the xml
generation to not put in the empty nodes.  Second, preprocess the xml and
remove the empty nodes, and third, create a custom dataDescriptor.
