Notes for Flex

The descendant accessor operator represented by a .. provides an easy way for you to access any properties int eh XML structure that are stored under the named node, regardless of where the node is in the hierarchical structure. in the case of ..product – the product is stored under the category node, but because you are using the descendant accessor (..) operator, you can reference all of the information stored int eh product node, even though the product node is sstored under the category node. The information is found regardless of where it is in the data structure.
