Best Practices

[ginsueye]

I am trying to find the best way to load and parse XML in Flash 8. I am new at the XML thing.

Is there particular way of doing it that is considered a "best practice"?

Thanks.

My spin? Inside this forum are endless snippets of working examples of XML objects. Other than maybe syntax forcing...an XML object in it's most basic form is the same in any exported version.

What you do with the node values may make the movie require a specific version but in itself...an XML object is not an elusive thing to learn...not here. There are tons of working code examples sitting beneath you right here. Tupps alone has probobly posted gobs. I'm on my way and there are tons of advanced users who post in here as well as mods. If I name one...I'll have to name them all to be fair and I'll be here all day

Thanks. I have parsed text docs and XML that was basically a text doc in the past, but I am attempting to load some variables and media via an XML doc, so I want to make sure my methods are tight.

I will keep looking and learning.
