Question

Say for example, I have an XML file with 100 “person” nodes, and I want the first 30. Or possibly 51 – 100. Is there any way to do this with e4x syntax to return an XMLList?

Answer 1

var list:XMLList = xml.person;
var start:int = 10;
var end:int = 40;
var filteredList:XMLList = new XMLList();
for(i = start - 1; i < end; i++)
  filteredList += new XML(XML(list[i]).toXMLString());
