AS2 and XML connectivity....

[SpitSpitSpitty]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone would know the AS2 required to direct a swf file to retrieve data from an XML file that is located 3 directories above the location of the swf file? I have gotten the swf to connect to it in a folder below it but not sure what is required to make it look back in directories above.

Thanks,

Hi,

Does this help?

var directoryXML:XML = new XML();
directoryXML.ignoreWhite = true;
directoryXML.load('../../../xmlFile.xml');
directoryXML.onLoad = function(ok)
{
    if (ok)
    {
        trace(directoryXML);
    }
    else
    {
        trace("couldn't find file");
    }
};
