Steven,
It would be cool if you made a version of that that was mtasc compatible...

You might want to try using my XMLParser class. It translates the XML into
ActionScript-friendly arrays/objects.

Bill,
Take a look at kirupa's XML guide here:
http://www.kirupa.com/web/xml/XMLwayAround2.htm
I also came across the same problem some time ago. I decided not to play
with siblings because our xml schema (especially the order of the
sibling nodes) couldn't be predictable. So I went to a custom
grammer

If you get a nice clean XML structure, XPath will save you a lot of code.
It takes a bit of getting used to but it will make your life easier.

In my experience, on small data sets, it makes little difference.
However, using attributes over nodes can in some cases decrease the
actual size of the XML file or string by a factor of 3 or 4, do this can

I agree with Ron on the XML, I didn't mention it earlier because I
didn't look that closely, but that XML format you created needs a major
overhaul. I would go with his recommended format.

This will parse better. It is probably easier to create.
To use Xpath, if you are using the xfactorstudios classes (I don't know
much about the built in Xpath features of Flash), you can access a
string like:
String(XPath.selectNodes(theXMLobject, thePathToTheNode)
Or for a number:

If your data is that consistent and all you need is to transfer it to
arrays, then why do you need xpath, you could write your own parser,
using while loops, to do this in very little time.
I'm not an experrt, but it seems to me that xpath is more useful for
dynamic access to the xml. Is that not

At first glance it seems to be doing a lot inside the while statement. That
could account for the lag. 15 times through the loop could slow things
down, especially if you're instantiating a moviecliploader each time around.

Here is some code that seems to work fine (a file of 4600+ XML nodes, many
of which nest ~10 nodes/levels deep, processed in under 0.65 seconds).

Hi Mars,
last time I had such a big xml to parse and got an error while the loop
blocked the flash movie, I just changed my 'for' loop with an
onEnterFrame based method.
this allowed me at same time to display a counter to inform the user
about the progression of my parsing process.
maybe not
Mars,
Look at Flasm (http://www.nowrap.de/flasm.html)

Good luck.

David,
I think he means not "xml is 1600 levels deep", but rather "XML has
1600 nodes and some of them have childNodes" :-)

Actually, I'd be interested too. I get frustrated with XML because sometimes
one uses it for a tree-based structure and sometimes for a linear markup
structure, and the two don't naturally go together very well. The XML
