XML Data into Data Grid in AS3

Step 1 : drag DataGrid Component into stage and delete it.

Step1. Paste below code

import fl.data.DataProvider;
import fl.controls.DataGrid;
import fl.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridColumn;

var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();

xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML);

xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest(“sampleXML.xml”));

function LoadXML(e:Event):void {
xmlData = new XML(e.target.data);
ParseBooks(xmlData);
}

function ParseBooks(bookInput:XML):void {
trace(“XML Output”);
trace(“————————”);

var titleList:XMLList=bookInput.Book.title;
var authorList:XMLList=bookInput.Book.author;

var dp:DataProvider=new DataProvider(xmlData);

var dg:DataGrid = new DataGrid();
dg.setSize(400, 300);
dg.editable=false;

var col:DataGridColumn;
col = dg.addColumn(“Author”);
col.dataField =”author”;
col = dg.addColumn(“Title”);
col.dataField =”title”;
dg.dataProvider=dp;

addChild(dg);
}

3. Make xml file (sampleXML.xml)

<?xml ver=”1.0″ ?>
