flash actionscript: Is there a data limitation with reading XML data from a text file?

Either in the number of nodes or number of total characters or file size?

I want to avoid a problem similar to one I had with Flash 5 and text string
where you could not convert a coma delimited string into an array if the string
was loger than X characters which I forgot anyway.

Thankx.

Loading more than 64k of data ............

Hi Jack,

The document you're reffering to indicate a problem whit the browesr player.

I will use the Flash application on a CD-ROM. IS there any limits in that situation?

hmm... i thought this snippet to be relevant -

Using multiple load actions and spreading the data out over a series
of frames can reduce the work the Macromedia Flash Player needs
to do to load and parse the information.

I did something similar before where I had to load huge amount of data from a
DB using a GET method. Speading the data in multiple variables did the trick.

I found out the XML limitation. Flash crashed (the "bad script" alert box)
when the XML file exceeded 1 meg and 43000 child nodes.

Not bad over all compared to the 64k mentionned in the document you were
reffering to.

Tankx nontheless.
