[Flashcoders] Looking for simple solution to edit xml inside flash file

[natalia Vikhtinskaya]

Hi to all
I need to find simple for user way to edit information in xml file (delete,
add, edit). Is that possible to do with data grid or scroll list? I can not
use outside CMS for xml I have to find way to do that in flash. Something
like -click btn edit-editable table of nodes on the screen -save- recreate
xml file from new list. Please give me advice for user friendly solution.
To see some examples would be very helpful.

Thank you in advance.

I need system inside Flash file for simple users.

Hi,

Then either you have to roll your own, (write something from scratch in AS3) or look for something online like this: http://www.findbestopensource.com/product/as3-xmltexteditor

Where you can take someone else's code as a start and then try and incorporate/modify it into your project.

Good luck,

Yes, I see that no good solution. I use textField for editing node after
selection. But I have problem with deleting node. Maybe you can give me
advice.
I select this is
<title titleName="First Words 1">set1</title>

//var node:XMLList;
trace(node.childIndex())
//0

trace(node)
set1

trace(node.parent())
<topic topicName="Reading">
<title titleName="First Words 1">set1</title>
<title titleName="Second Words 1">set2</title>
</topic>

I can not find way to delete this line that has "set1"
<title titleName="First Words 1">set1</title>

when I use
trace(node.parent().children()[ node.childIndex() ])
that delete "set1"

This can help you understand creating and editing. There are many more resources out there.

Thank you. In this article I see removeNode
xmlSets..subject.(@sbjName==subjectCb.selectedLabel).topic.(@topicName==topicCb.selectedLabel).title.(@titleName==titleCb.selectedLabel).removeNode()
does not work the same as delete.
