Question

protected var categoryXML:XML;
protected var categoryArr:ArrayCollection;
protected var categoryList:IList;

for (var i:int=0;i<getLength(categoryXML.category);i++) {
   trace(categoryXML.category[i].name);
   categoryArr[i] = categoryXML.category[i].name;
}

I’m having trouble with this bit of code…

The trace here works great, and I get the response I expect, but when I try to add it to the categoryArr variable, I get yelled at and told it’s null.

What could cause the difference here?

Thanks!

did you try to create your ArrayCollection : categoryArr = new ArrayCollection(); ?
