this is a simple test code to send and load xml data from a flash movie:  
[AS]tgXML = new XML("\<data\>\<m nick=“Adela” colour=“000000”\>Nuevo%20tagboard%2C%20pueden%20escribir%20lo%20que%20quieran%20sobre%20la%20p%C3%A1gina%20aqu%C3%AD%2E\</m\>\<m nick=“io” colour=“ff0000”\>Nuevo%20mensaje%20escrito%20por%20mi\</m\>\</data\>");  
tgXML.ignoreWhite = true;  
tgRecipiente = new XML();  
tgRecipiente.ignoreWhite = true;  
tgRecipiente.onLoad = function(){  
campo.text = tgRecipiente.firstChild;}  
tgXML.sendAndLoad(“escribidor.php”,tgRecipiente);[/AS]  
its very similar to the one of the xml guestbook in this site, and because I copied the whole php script from there, there’s nothing wrong with it.  
the problem is that this script **isn’t sending anything** and everytime i run it it ereases the xml file. WHY???

```php
<?php
$xmlString = $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA;
if($xmlString != NULL){
$file = fopen("tagboard.xml", "w+") or die("Can't open XML file");
if(!fwrite($file, $xmlString)){
	print "Error writing to XML-file";
}
print $xmlString."
";
fclose($file);}
else {print "no data was sent";}
?>

```

try replacing $HTTP\_RAW\_POST\_DATA; with readfile(“php://input”); and see if that helps
