    uploading ASPXdriven XML viaXML.Socket

    Hi,

    Long (long, long, long) time no post

    I'm trying to use the XML.Connector to upload an XML file from a database from a specific url which includes a variable.

    eg : http://myweb.com/database/aspx?variable=this

    The connector will load an actual xml file but doesn't seem to like the database file. Anyone else had a similar problem .... or suggest an answer. My understanding was that the Connector was designed for just such a task.

    Muchos Merci's

    First thing to check is that your website is delivering the xml you expect it to. Use a browser and make sure that the xml file is well formed etc.

    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply Luke,

    Yeah, the xml seems fine; shows up in a browser as well formed.

    The Connector trace output tells me there is a fault and I just can't get it to work. As I said, if I change the url to that of a static xml file the app. works fine - the coding is sound; just the connector doesn't like the method of delivery.

    I know if I run the movie on an html page, through a browser, the SWF won't load the file if it is in another domain - but this shouldn't be an issue whilst testing it...... should it?

    Are the flash file and the asp page on the same webserver? If they aren't you will be hitting the flash security problems.

    The other thing is to check the web server logs and make sure that the page isn't being borked on the server (eg flash is managling the url or something).

    Thanks
