The Fla file: Actionscript for buttons, accessing the XML file

We now have to get access to the XML file. We do that by creating a function containing a loop. In this function we search for the root node "models".

 //function to get to the root node and the childnodes
 function newModel() {
 //loop going through the xml file whereby childNodes.length is the number of child nodes
 for (var count01=0; count01<=models.childNodes.length; count01++) {
 //the root node name "models"
 if (this.childNodes[count01].nodeName.toLowerCase() == "models") {
 //this var holds the complete xml file
 modelsDescryption = this.childNodes[count01];
 }
 }
 //function to get access to individual childnodes
 //modelsDescryption will carry over the extracted contents from the previous
 //function to the next function
 findModels(modelsDescryption);
}
