Combo gives same value everytime.

[WackOo]

Hello Everybody, I'm new and not to advanced in AutoIt but I'm trying to create a Sync Tool for a game I'm playing.

I'm using a combo box to select the save game, unfortunately it always returns value "4", what am i doing wrong?..

Do i need to unset the value or what is it that i'm missing.

I'd also like some advice, cause for this savegame i will need to read a xml file, is there anything XML like for AutoIt,

or do i need to read it as a string and then explode the values or what would be a good way to read an XML file.

The value in the variable $savegameCombo is the control id of the combo box, not its contents. Try this instead:

MsgBox("", "Box", "savegame :" & GUICtrlRead($savegameCombo))

Thanks, That worked!..

Anyone have any advice's for reading XML files?

You could try and see if that UDF might be of use to you in reading the XML files.

I'm experimenting with it at this moment, though I'm used to programming in PHP and reading XML there is quite a bit easier it seems, hehe.

I'm not quite getting trough it yet.

Currently have this, but how do i generated an array or get the values that i would need.

$savegameValue = StringLower(StringReplace(GUICtrlRead($savegameCombo), " ", ""))
$savegamePath = @MyDocumentsDir & "\My Games\FarmingSimulator2011\" & $savegameValue & "\careerSavegame.xml"
$gameinfoPath = @MyDocumentsDir & "\My Games\FarmingSimulator2011\savegames.xml"

$savegameXML = _XMLFileOpen($savegamePath)
$mapId = _XMLGetAttrib('./careerSavegame', 'mapId')
MsgBox("", "Map", $mapId)

This is an savegame xml file, the only things i would need are the value's of money, mapId.

There's another xml file that i would need to parse, but i'll probably get that sorted if i get a little help parsing this one
