xml file

        <profile>             <first_name>ann</first_name>             <last_name> lee</last_name>             <photography>sport</photography>             <photography>landscape</photography>             <photography>still life</photography>                        <image>img1.jpg</image>          </profile>          <profile>                <first_name>john</first_name>             <last_name> thomas</last_name>             <photography>wildlife</photography>             <photography>landscape</photography>             <image>img2.jpg</image>         </profile> 

here example on how you'd like:

using test xml:

var xml:xml =   <data>                 <profile>                     <first_name>ann</first_name>                     <last_name> lee</last_name>                     <photography>sport</photography>                     <photography>landscape</photography>                     <photography>still life</photography>                                <image>img1.jpg</image>                 </profile>;                 <profile>                        <first_name>john</first_name>                     <last_name> thomas</last_name>                     <photography>wildlife</photography>                     <photography>landscape</photography>                     <image>img2.jpg</image>                 </profile></data>; 

//create array, , popluate xml nodes var list:array = new array(); xml.profile.photography.(list.push(tostring()));  // ^ converts xmllist array running method in brackets on each item in xmllist  //sort duplicate values grouped list.sort();  trace(list); //this traces out full list  //now iterate array/vector var i:int = 0; while(i < list.length) {      //while next item matches current, splice out     while(i < list.length+1 && list[i] == list[i+1]) {         list.splice(i, 1);     }     i++; }  trace(list); //this list no duplicates
