resultGraphic attribute Assignment

ShaunWeston

I'm trying to setup a configuration xml file for a user to set the field names in, which would then be picked up by the mxml script.

Basically I have a bunch of code like this:

var Ratepayer1LastName:String = resultGraphic.attributes.Ratepayer1LastName;
var Ratepayer2FirstName:String = resultGraphic.attributes.Ratepayer2FirstName;

And I want that last bit to be set by the user in an xml file. So I basically want this bit to always stay the same - "resultGraphic.attributes." and then the last bit (e.g. Ratepayer1LastName) to be assigned from an xml file.

I'm not sure how to do this? If I go:

userconfig = configXML.windowtitle
var Ratepayer1LastName:String = "resultGraphic.attributes." + userconfig;
it obviously just takes that string and not the actual attribute value.

I've got myself a bit confused.

Shaun,

   You should be able to do this:

userconfig = configXML.windowtitle var Ratepayer1LastName:String = resultGraphic.attributes[userconfig];
