In Flash, how would I run an e4x statement when that statement is stored in a String?

Question

So I have something like this:

var xmlStatement:String = \"xmlObject.node[3].@thisValue\";

What mystery function do I have to use so that I can

Answer 1

For your example it would be: var attribute : String = String( E4X.evaluate( XMLList(xmlobject) , 'node[3].@thisValue' ) );
