hi.
i'm kinda new at these thing and i'm not a native english speaker ...so i
apologize for the possible errors.
the story:
(i'm using flash mx professional on windows 2000)
a tree component gets data from an xml file. the xml file has 3 nodes, each
with a entry composed from 2 fields.
(node1, node2, node3, child1-value1, child2-value2, child3-value3)
it all goes well until the xml file has a duplicate node.
at this point it the tree component creates a node even for the duplicate xml
node.
is there any way to prevent this?
more: having duplicate nodes with different values?
i runned into this problem when i started giving the posibility on my site for
people to add their own links in the links section.
on my [url]http://www.il-bu.net/sia[/url] is a working example of this.
the xml file is built like this: category - label - link
if someone adds a new link under an existing category the tree component
creates different nodes.

the "work-around" i think it should work: assigning the xml values to an
array, sorting the array and then re-building an xml variable.

any other way?
