I’m making a little news feed with xml and I was wondering if there’s a way to make the preloader take account of weather the xml files have loaded or not. Would just adding an xml.onLoad thingy as a part of the preloader code so that it can’t play the movie unitl the xml has all loaded work? The aim is to let me use the xml data as soon as it enters the frame.
Also, is there a way to find out how many child nodes there are from within flash, sort of like the array.lengh thing for arrays.
