copied!<p>You XML is set up just a tad wrong. In AS3 you need a root node. A root node is not accessible it's just kind of a wrapper. In your case Question is your root node which is not accessible, which will make those attributes not accessible also. So put a wrapper around your xml. I could be wrong about not being able to access the root node attributes however I am correct on your XML not being proper. And adding the wrapper just makes like easier.</p> <pre><code><questions> <question id='Q1' uId='99036' no_ans='2' txt='In a flat structure employees are not expected to provide their bosses with their opinions.' feedback='' type='MC' passingWeight='1' url='media/'> <answer id='Q1A1' uId='311288' txt='True' weight='0'/> <answer id='Q1A2' uId='311289' txt='False' weight='1'/> </question> <question id='Q2' uId='99037' no_ans='2' txt='In a hierarchy, information typically flows downward.' feedback='' type='MC' passingWeight='1' url='media/'> <answer id='Q2A1' uId='311290' txt='True' weight='1'/> <answer id='Q2A2' uId='311291' txt='False' weight='0'/> </question> <question id='Q3' uId='99038' no_ans='2' txt='Someone who keeps many projects going at one time is an example of someone who is flexible-time oriented.' feedback='' type='MC' passingWeight='1' url='media/'> <answer id='Q3A1' uId='311292' txt='True' weight='1'/> <answer id='Q3A2' uId='311293' txt='False' weight='0'/> </question> </questions> </code></pre> <p>And then grab the attribute like so.</p> <pre><code>var questions:XMLList = new XMLList( e.target.data.question ) for each ( var question:XML in questions){ trace( question.@txt ) } </code></pre>
