Memo: Flash and XML

Dynamic Flash with XML

1. Create XML (generate with JSP)

jsp:

<%@ page contentType="text/xml" %>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<itemlist>
...
</itemlist>

2. Load the external XML into Flash (fla). Create swf

ActionScript:

myTest = new XML(); //create a new xml object
myTest.ignoreWhite = true; //ignore whitespace
myTest.load("sample.xml");
...

3. Embed the swf (and set xml path) in HTML

HTML:

<object width="250" height="250" id="some_id">
<param name=movie value="test.swf">
<embed src="test.swf">
</embed>
</object>
