try
{
textBox1.AppendText(nameAttributeCheck(comboBox1.SelectedItem.ToString()));
}
catch {
}
}
private string nameAttributeCheck(string a)
{
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.Load("armor.xml");
XmlElement root = doc.DocumentElement;
XmlNodeList items = root.SelectNodes("/items");
String result = null;
try
{
foreach (XmlNode item in items)
{
if (string.Equals(a, item.Attributes["name"].InnerText.ToString()))
{
result += item.Attributes["picture"].InnerText.ToString();
}
}
}
