Hello
I have a map that is going to show a color for each Dep DID. I use setRGB(0x"Color") method but I am having a hard time figuring out how to populate each of the movieclips(different cities and places) with the color that matches the Dep DID.
I have this xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Deps>
<Dep DID="1" Value="0.56" Color="FF0000">
<Name>Italy</Name>
<Dep DID="11" Value="0.74" Color="00CC33">
<Name>Verona</Name>
<Dep DID="1901" Value="0.74" Color="00CC33">
<Name>Arena</Name>
<Dep DID="1902" Value="0.74" Color="00CC33">
<Name>Plaza</Name>
</Dep>
<Dep DID="21" Value="0.95" Color="FFCC00">
<Name>Milano</Name>
<Dep DID="4"Value="0.95" Color="FFCC00">
<Name>Malpensa</Name>
</Dep>
</Dep>
</Dep>
</Dep>
</Deps>

Can anyone help me please.

There is lots of way to do this... yes ofcourse you can use XPath.

you can set rgb.

var color = "FF0000" // this value should be from xml
var myColor:Color = new Color(target_mc) // target_mc should be your map city
myColor.setRGB(Number("0x" + color))

one more thing... xml fromat should be like this...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Deps>
<Dep DID="1" Value="0.56" Color="FF0000">
<Name>
Italy
</Name>
</Dep>
<Dep DID="11" Value="0.74" Color="00CC33">
<Name>
Verona
</Name>
</Dep>
<Dep DID="1901" Value="0.74" Color="00CC33">
<Name>
Arena
</Name>
</Dep>
<Dep DID="1902" Value="0.74" Color="00CC33">
<Name>
Plaza
</Name>
</Dep>
<Dep DID="21" Value="0.95" Color="FFCC00">
<Name>

</Name>
</Dep>
<Dep DID="4" Value="0.95" Color="FFCC00">
