Hello

I would like to use the descendant accessor operator to extract all time-entry nodes from
the event data containing the following XML and loop through them.

<time-invested>
  <group-by>person</group-by>
  <start-date>2008-03-23</start-date>
  <end-date>2008-03-29</end-date>
  <groups>
    <group>
      <title>me</title>
      <total>12.45</total>
      <time-entries>
        <time-entry>
           ---nodes are here ----
        </time-entry>
      </time-entries>
    </group>
  </groups>
</time-invested>

I have tried this...

    for each (var t:XML in event.result..time-entry)

but I get an error  "1120: Access of undefined property entry".

I know this is due to the "-" in the element name but I do not know how to escape it.

any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Todd

Try event.result..["time-entry"], and if that doesn't work, try
event.result.descendants("time-entry").
