obsidian Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 You can easily pass in different XML documents via the query string as you would in some PHP pages. You would have something like this if you were loading a static XML document (my_document.xml): var my_xml = new XML(); my_xml.onLoad = function(success) { if (success) { trace(this); } } my_xml.load("my_document.xml"); trace(my_xml); Then, if you wanted to make that document dynamically passed in via the query string, you would set a variable in your param movie tag (also in your embed tag if you are using embed) like this: <param name="movie" value="myflashmovie.swf?xmldoc=myxmldoc.xml" /> You can pick up those query string values from the root within your flash document, so your XML actionscript may change to something like this: my_xml.load(_root.xmldoc); trace(my_xml); Hope that helps some.
