XML 731

Example

The following example includes ActionScript for a simple e-commerce storefront application.

The

sendAndLoad() method transmits an XML element that contains the user's name and

password, and uses an

XML.onLoad handler to process the reply from the server.

var login_str:String = "<login username=\""+username_txt.text+"\"

password=\""+password_txt.text+"\" />";

var my_xml:XML = new XML(login_str);

var myLoginReply_xml:XML = new XML();

myLoginReply_xml.ignoreWhite = true;

myLoginReply_xml.onLoad = function(success:Boolean){

if (success) {

if ((myLoginReply_xml.firstChild.nodeName == "packet") &&

(myLoginReply_xml.firstChild.attributes.success == "true")) {

gotoAndStop("loggedIn");

} else {

gotoAndStop("loginFailed");

}

} else {

gotoAndStop("connectionFailed");

}

};

my_xml.sendAndLoad("http://www.flash-mx.com/mm/login_xml.cfm",

myLoginReply_xml);
