Question

I’ve narrowed down the code to this (ignore the colourization):

var theXML:XML =      <xml>         word     </xml>;  for each (var i:XML in theXML.*) {     trace(i); } 

For some reason, this prints out ‘word’ over and over indefinitely. Any thoughts as to why? I’m a bit out of practice and have a feeling it’s something obvious, but I’m stumped.

Thanks, Cameron

Finding it interesting I just tested. The result is just one single ‘word’, as expected.

Probably you have placed it into an ENTER_FRAME/TIMER event handler or eventually on a frame on the timeline that gets looped.
