Unable to extract Data from XML

[pranay_kondekar]

Hi,

I am using Yahoo Local Search Service which returns the XML
response. I want to retrieve data from the XML that I received. I
stuck at this point and unable to retrieve the response in to
datagrid.

The response XML is as follows



<ResultSet xsi:schemaLocation="urn:yahoo:lcl
http://api.local.yahoo.com/LocalSearchService/V3/LocalSearchResponse.xsd"
totalResultsAvailable="224" totalResultsReturned="1"
firstResultPosition="1" xmlns:xsi="
http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns="urn:yahoo:lcl">

<ResultSetMapUrl>
http://maps.yahoo.com/broadband/?q1=San+Jose%2C+CA+95112&amp;tt=starbucks&amp;tp=1</ResultSetMapUrl>

<Result id="21590724">

<Title>Starbucks</Title>

<Address>145 W Santa Clara St</Address>

<City>San Jose</City>

<State>CA</State>

<Phone>(408) 288-8803</Phone>

<Latitude>37.335236</Latitude>

<LastReviewIntro>My previous review had incorrect
data. That was not true, I am sorry, I didn't know. As far as food
and drink goes, Starbucks is pretty good.</LastReviewIntro>

</Result>

</ResultSet>



The code that I am writing to get Title and Address is as
follows.



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<mx:Application xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"

layout="vertical"

backgroundAlpha="0" backgroundColor="#FFFFFF">



<mx:HTTPService

id="weatherService"

url="
http://local.yahooapis.com/LocalSearchService/V3/localSearch"

resultFormat="e4x"

result="resultHandler(event);"/>



<mx:Script>

<![CDATA[

import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;

import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;



[Bindable]

private var myResult:XML ;

private var temp:XMLNode;

private var list:ArrayCollection;



public function requestWeather():void {

weatherService.cancel();

var params:Object = new Object();

params.appid = "YahooDemo";

params.query = "starbucks";

params.zip = "95112";

params.results = "1"

weatherService.send(params);

}



public function resultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void {

myResult = XML( event.result);

temp = myResult.Result;

list = ArrayCollection(event.result);

}

]]>

</mx:Script>



<mx:Form width="400">

<mx:FormItem label="Get Local Data">

<mx:Button label="Get Data"
click="requestWeather();"/>

</mx:FormItem>

<mx:FormItem label="Address">

<mx:Text text="{myResult.Result.Address}"/>

</mx:FormItem>

<mx:FormItem label="Title">

<mx:Text text="{myResult.Result.Title}"/>

</mx:FormItem>

</mx:Form>



<mx:DataGrid

dataProvider="{myResult}"

x="80" y="141" width="262" height="92"
id="shippingOptionsList" editable="false" enabled="true">

<mx:columns>

<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Title"
dataField="Result.Title" />

<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Address"
dataField="Result.Address" />

</mx:columns>

</mx:DataGrid>

<mx:Label text="Response as it is"/>

<mx:TextArea id="resultFld" text="{myResult}" width="400"
height="152"/>





</mx:Application>
