Question

I have the following XML object:

<ns2:errorCode>
  3001
</ns2:errorCode>

How do I access the value if I only have a string saying errorCode.

I would like to do something like:

xml['*::'+str]
where xml is the XML object with the above node and str is my string variable containing "errorCode".

Thank you for the help. If anybody is interested this is how I solved it.

What was making the task difficult was the namespace. This works!

var t:XMLList = xml.*.(localName() =='errorCode');
