topicTree.dataProvider=xmlFile
Where the xmlFile is the string generated and returned from a CFC.
There were two problems here. The first was that the whitesapce was
fromt he typical CF source. The ugly hack to get around that was to
put every piece of code involved in generating the xml on the SAME
line. Very ugly, but effective. cfsetting cfoutputonly didn't seem to
have an effect here.
The second problem ahs to be condered a bug in Flash tree component.
It interpreted the <?xml ...> at the head of the file as DAT. Once
that was stripped out everything worked fine.
