Read xml file to an array

[soso]

Hi,

I've a problem to read a xml file with data tag.

I use this code:

Code: Select all

            <data name="call" src="D:\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\Test\msg.xml" maxage="0"/>
            <script>
                var rc = call.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("rc").item(0).firstChild.data;
                var msg= call.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("msg").item(0).firstChild.data;
				var msg1= call.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("msg").item(1).firstChild.data;
	        </script>

My xml file is like this:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<call>
    <rc>0</rc>
    <message>D:\media\-57672070.vox</message>
    <message>media/lastcall.wav</message>
</call>

I would like to use an array to read all msg in xml files with tag "message".

How can I proceed?

Thanks.

Hi soso,

As a starting point, you will not be able to use URL's like D:\My Documents\... because our IVR servers do not have access to your local hard drives.

To access all elements with a certain tagname and store their contents in an array, you can utilize the fact that getElementsByTagName returns an array-like structure of DOM elements. Refer to http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/WD-voicexml21 ... c-data-dom for information on what DOM functions are available.

Code: Select all

<script>
var messages = call.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("message");
var array = [];
for (var i = 0; i < messages.length; i++) { 
    array[] = messages.item(i).firstChild().toString(); 
}
</script>

Ok, thanks.

Yes, I change the local file for yours servers.

Thanks for your code. It's ok.

I've another problem: how can I play each element from array (I try "foreach" but doesn't work)?

Thanks by advance.

Ok, I found the solution. I use this code:

Code: Select all

            <foreach array="array" item="tmp">
                <audio expr="tmp" />
            </foreach>

Thanks again.
