I am trying to build a flash poll using XML only, is there anyone who would be
able to help me use the xml connector and the other components. I have the xml
file and the schema. But I am not sure how to integrate everything?
any help greatly appreciated:confused;

Hi

I think you need to elucidate a little more on the project, 'integrate everything' is a little vague.
There are many ways to skin a cat, but it helps to have a cat...............

Thank you for your reply, I apologize for being vague,just wanted to see if
anyone would reply before I explained my debacle.
I am looking for a tutorial on using the XML connector or using an XML file
without using PHP or asp. I have built a poll using a url string to talk to an
asp page and a access server. Unfortunately I cannot use those in the
enviroment I am in.(vague on purpose). I have done all of the other tutorials
within the flash help site; [i]Timesheet[/i] and I can receive xml fine using
the components. However I am having trouble sending information to the xml file
itself. Does the XUpdate resolver do that for you or do youstill need a handler
to perform that function. Basically I was wondering if anyone knew of a good
tutorial site or book(whats a book..I know) reference, that would explain a
little further about the XMLConnector.

Thanks for any advice or help.

Hi

It seems from what I've read so far that Xupdateresolver seems to be the way
forward but it also seems this has to be used with a Dataset component. It also
seems that your source data has to be resident in the Dataset then any changes
are resolved using the deltapacket of the Dataset and then sent to the server
and updated.

This seems rather convoluted, I Googled 'Xupdatresolver' and found several
examples of using these components

This refers to Flash MX Pro but its probably identical to Flash8 its talks
about remoting vs comms server - good tut.

And a book just for good measure

Hope it helps

Thank you very much for your help, all of the links were very helpful. I ended
up going the straight actionscript route. Without using any of the components,
they seem simple enough but confusing in the same sense, to me anyway. Any way
thanks again for your help.
