Thanks for answering.

I did found your explanations and link suggestions interesting and encouraging.

Anyway, I did not make myself clear with my question. What I did want to know was how to create any property, even without knowing it's name. I did read several docs and tutorials until I figured it out. Hope this can be of help.

var data:XML = <node/>;
var $my_attr:String = 'id';
data.@[$my_attr] = 'foo';

To add attribute you need to write as

xmlNode.attributes.@attr = "value";

Hope it works.

Thx Amitd

dirkgently didn't directly tell you how to do it, I guess with an educational purpose. Nonetheless, here's how:

var xml:XML = <node/>;
xml.@attr = "value";

Tada! But please, RTFM.
