Loading seperate XML files

programming flash
1

Hi all! :slight_smile:
This problem has been bugging me for a while. I’m familiar with flash scripting but I was wondering if anyone could possibly tell me how I would load a seperate XML file using AS2 and Flash 8. Basically I’m looking to do a football/soccer results archive for each season of my local football/soccer team with lineups, attendance, referee and picture of the match programme etc. Ideally I could use a combobox to load a different season using an XML file then a list of the matches would load onto the page and by clicking on the match in the list it would load a match report scene with seperate XML for each match. I’ve been looking for examples…

http://flash2007.sport.repubblica.it/sport/campionato2007/index.swf

The 2nd example would be the best one as it doesn’t use any ? characters in the URL. The ‘GIOCATORI’ section but I could alter the player profile to be a match report without a problem.

Thanks in advance and I hope someone can please help me. :slight_smile:
Cheers
Shaun

its easily do able, you’ll have to call the xml relevant names, 08_06_05_seson2.xml or the like

then when you click a section, it knows, yearvar:08, month:06,Day:08 sticks them in a variable then loads in the relivant xml

again when you click a match/player, it would have to do the same thing

…

easy peasy!.. what?
