Reading XML data from string

You can use setXML() method of AW.XML.Table class, which accepts either a reference to the XMLDocument object (IE XML Data Island) or XML string -

table.setXML(ServerXML);

Here is the full example -

<html>

<head>

    <title>ActiveWidgets Examples</title>

    <style>body {font: 12px Tahoma}</style>

    <script src="../../runtime/lib/aw.js"></script>

    <link href="../../runtime/styles/xp/aw.css" rel="stylesheet"></link>

</head>

<body>

<script>



    var ServerXML="<companies><company><ticker>MSFT1</ticker><name>Microsoft Corporation</name></company></companies>";



    var table = new AW.XML.Table;

    table.setXML(ServerXML);



    var obj = new AW.UI.Grid;

    obj.setId("myGrid");



    obj.setCellModel(table);

    obj.setRowCount(1); // or obj.setRowCount(table.getCount());

    obj.setColumnCount(2);



    document.write(obj);



</script>

</body>

</html>

There are more examples like this in the /examples/grid data - xml data islands/ directory.
