Okay, so question:

Does anyone know offhand of any good tutorials on configuring a search through an XML in FLASH where you expect to get multiple results from one search? (example- multiple records with the same status). I'm finding a ton on searching for exact records, but they all expect only one result back and it's driving me nuts. I've spent waaaay to much time on this stupid little thing, I'm SO not good enough with actionscript to this. I've tried lots of the tutorials on xml sites that work with flash, tried messing around with the actionscript myself, done tutorials in the books, no luck. HUGe waste of time. right now I've got my xml configured, it's all hooked up, and it even shows the first record, and I figured out how to get it to work for a random numbered record even!!! (before it was only showing the LAST record of the loop. i think it might have something to do with that whole "i" variable thingie-yeah, I know, soooo technical)Now if I can only get the stupid thing to get the REST of the records... I'm so getting an actionscript for dummies book. something with visible illustrations and DETAILED descriptions of variables. All the ones out there are WAY over my poor beginners head-i feel like I'm grasping it, and then suddenly -- WHOOPS! look-we added a variable and we're NOT telling you(the reader) why *bangheadondesk*.

*sigh*

i swear I'm not usually this stupid when it comes to this stuff.

(and before I get any of those dont.use.flash messages- it's an internal demonstration of a program replicated in flash-so not flashy blinki-ness and flash + xml was requested of me...no choice really ARG-)
