Good morning Mr Tavelli,

I?m Antonio Gargiulo and I?m writing you from Italy.

Thank you in advance for the attention that you will give to my mail and sorry for my English mistakes (probably in this mail there are a lot of error in English).

I?m a junior developer and I?m trying to develop an Application in Flex Builder 2.

I?m looking for a useful example on the web that can help me to solve my problem and I found your example at http://www.sephiroth.it/file_detail.php?id=130 .

The question is the following: I have a WebService that returns me an XML. I would use this XML in order to populate some textbox, select and some other part of the front-end of my web application.

So, I need something in Flex Builder / Actionscript that can give me the possibility to use XPath language to interrogate the XML retuned me from WebService.

I think that your example can be very useful but I?m an inexpert developer in Flex Builder and I don?t know how it is possible to use your example in it.

Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Sorry if I have bored you with stupid question.

Thank you very much.

Kind Regards

Also, A License to Build will address the financial aspects of construction, including how to get a construction job for a company, how to pay for construction (insert headache here), what kinds of training, education, and classes are available for construction work, and even how to carry out a safe, effective construction project.

Is this Search case insensitive ?

How do I search with key "j" then display "J"?
Note: search with toLowerCase and UpperCase?

Extremely new to xml in flash.
Does anyone know where I can find a VERY basic example/tutorial using xpath?

I'm trying to use the upper-case XPATH function in union with contains (just i was developing an app. that is needed of it).
Now xfactorStudio have no documentation avaliable...

i'm trying with something like:

var strXPATH:String = "//Localidades/Localidad[contains(fichaLocalidad, 'TESTING PHRASE')]";

IF fichaLocalidad contains "testing Phrase" it didn't find any...

trying:
var strXPATH:String = "//Localidades/Localidad[contains(upper-case(fichaLocalidad),'TESTING PHRASE')]";

And a lot of combinations but no correct results...

anybody knows the upper-case implementation of XFACTOR-STUDIO? :(

Hy.. really nice this xpath implementation.. and really effective search engine.. but i have one small question.. how can i make the search not key sensitive.. i have no ideea how to do that..

To save others the time and energy here is my own solution for above issue,

// set Url in taUrl textbox
var choosenUrlText = XPath.selectNodes(choosenEpisodeData, "./url")[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
choosenUrlText = choosenUrlText.toString();
newString3 = choosenUrlText; txt.htmltext=taUrl;
// Get url Function
function MyFunc(){
trace ("");
}
taUrl.text = newString3;
knop.onRelease = function () {
getUrl(newString3);
newString3 = "";
}


}

hi.
How can you implement a DISTINCT clause with XPath.

thanks
