@MIke:

I’m parsing data from a URL into a tableview, and pushing to a detailview. All that works fine but I can’t get the images to load in the table cell.

Is there a code snippet you can share to point me in the right directions?

Thanks!

…of course, with the UIImage create you could then create your own custom UITableViewCell to display that image as you wish.

If you can identify the image data inside the XML you are receiving then you should be able to use +(UIImage *)imageWithData:(NSData *)data

If the data is encoded with base64 then you could use the NSDataAdditions category that is used within TBXML to unzip the data before passing it to UIImage.

Hope that helps.

Hi Aram

I’ve not tried to use KissXML with Cocod2d so can’t comment on the problem you are having.

What is it you are using KissXML for. If you just want a very quick way to read and parse XML with a nice simple API you should try TBXML (http://www.tbxml.co.uk)

This is what I am now using for parsing all my XML for tilemaps, particle emitters etc.

I get a compilation error when trying to compile KissXML and Cocos2d in the same project, have anyone else experienced this problem?

It’s sad because it seems as a very clean and decent XML-library :(

xpath doesn’t have to be slow, you may want to look at vtd-xml
