ok so now im opening the data from mysql and making it into xml using php. I used vash’s tutorial (Jubba). That works nicely now.

So now that i have the data as xml, how do I get it to load into flash (mx)?

I search too…no luck…

thanks

Vash, thanks for all you help on hga77’s question. I have one more question to add on this topic if possible. I followed your above code exactly and I get the correct trace output. However, now I am trying to use that output in a tree component with Flash MX 2004. Basically I’ve simply added the following code within the success event of the importXML.onLoad function:  
treeinstancename.dataProvider=importXML;

However, the tree component ends up populated with a bunch of undefined nodes. If i simply use a static XML page it works fine. It simply doesn’t seem to be able to handle the php file. Any thoughts? Thanks
