That's great for non-dynamic code, but this code is dynamic. So how would you reference it as not being equal to the current node? I'm basically looking to obtain the previous type for each flower node you're at. Think of it like a parent-child relationship. If the parent of tulip is rose, I want to be able to obtain the value of rose. On 1/27/06, Thang X.
