Reading from an xml and adding data to a datagrid AS3

Thank you for your answer. I've done an example but I have a problem with it the dataProvider only reads 2 tags in the xml file and adds it in the DataGrid. here is the xml file.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

<airlines>

    <flightdescription>

        <id> 1 </id>

        <flightno> usa1000 </flightno>

        <origin>Chicago</origin>

        <destination>Boston</destination>

        <departurdatetime>2015/03/29 14:45 </departurdatetime>

        <arrivaldatetime>2015/03/30 23:45</arrivaldatetime>

        <img src='C:\Users\sherif\Desktop\Fujitsu - Digital media solution\Flash\US-Airways-Logo'/>

    </flightdescription>

</airlines>

I've shortened the xml file.

and this is the as3 code:

var myDataGrid:DataGrid = new DataGrid();

myDataGrid1.addColumn("flight no");

myDataGrid1.addColumn("origin");

myDataGrid1.addColumn("destination");

myDataGrid1.addColumn("departure date & time");

myDataGrid1.addColumn("arrival date & time");

  var dp:DataProvider;

var urlAirlines:String = "airlines.xml";

var reqAirlines:URLRequest = new URLRequest(urlAirlines);

var urlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();

urlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, AirlinesHandler);

urlLoader.load(reqAirlines);

function AirlinesHandler(event:Event):void {

    var xmlDP:XML = new XML(urlLoader.data);

    dp = new DataProvider(xmlDP);

    myDataGrid1.dataProvider = dp;

    //myDataGrid1.columnCount = mydataGrid1.width;

    myDataGrid1.rowCount = myDataGrid1.length+2;

    myDataGrid1.columns[0].width = 70;

    myDataGrid1.columns[1].width = 70;

    myDataGrid1.columns[2].width = 90;

    myDataGrid1.columns[3].width = 130;

    myDataGrid1.columns[4].width = 130;

    myDataGrid1.horizontalScrollPolicy = ScrollPolicy.ON;

    trace(dp);

    trace(myDataGrid1);

}

the output only reads the tags Origin and Destination and adds them in DataGrid. anyone have any ideas?? Thank you in advance.

use the urlloader class to load your xml file.

if that's a cross-domain xml file and you can't add a policy file to the xml hosting server, using a php gateway is a good work-around.
