How to Convert XML to Key/Value Pair in flex

[Booma Devi]

Hi,

I have one xml like the below,

<schools>
<school>
<name>ABC</name>
<rate>123</rate>
</school>
<school>
<name>DEF</name>
<rate>123</rate>
</school>
</schools>

I need to get the XML file through HTTP service and need to convert those like the below,

school[name]=rate;
school[ABC]=123;

Like this.. Can any one please help to solve this..

Hi,

The problem is solved..

public var child:School=new School();
			public var xmlAmount:Object;
			public var book:Object=new Object();

public function onResult(event:ResultEvent):void
			{
				if(event.result!=null)
				{
					xmlAmount = (event.result).descendants("school");
					var children:Object = xmlAmount; 
					for each (var child:Object in children) {
						var key:String=child.name;
						var value:String=child.rate;
						book[key]=value;
						userModel.book=book;
		
					}
				}	
					
	School.as
	
	public var book:Object;

Shouldn't it be (event.result).descendants("schools"); With this you should get all the 'school' nodes, which you loop through and can pluck out individual name and rate.

Hi,

I had stored the xml file in server side. So, through result event I got the school nodes only. If there is any other way (other than result event) then please inform.

From your code I thought that you were actually getting a schools node rather than a school node...Other than result event, I don't know an other way to fetch data...
