XML Output to File

[Mercury082]

Can anyone help me with appending childnodes to an xml file? I have a basic login kinda thing working by authenticating to an XML file but I'm now faced with the task of being able to add new users. I need to append a childnode with attributes, to the loaded XML file. This is not for a web-application, the XML file is local.

Thanks,

Mercury.

Flash out of the box cannot save files locally.

However the flash XML has an appendChild routine which will allow you to add nodes to an XML file.

Thanks

Yeah, I have had a look at the appendChild routine however it doesnt seem to save it to the actual file, which is what I really need. Is there anyway of getting around this problem? This is not for a web based application so it's not practical to use cgi or php etc. Also cross platform compatability is important for this project.

Thanks

Flash can't save to the local machine, especially as a standalone app. The only workaround is using external flash tools.

One options is to used the storedObjects in flashMX. This is an amount of space (i think around 100k) which can be used by flash applications to save to the local machine.
