By "you cannot do that without breaking the parsing up over multiple
frames", do you mean
a) there is some way to break up the actual xml reading over several
frames, and even be able to access individual nodes before the whole
thing is read in? if so, I would love to see an example, or
b) there is some way to make the conversion from xml object to other
actionscript structure happen over multiple frames (which doesn't seem
useful to stop the timeout problem), or
c) you can set up a 2-frame loop while the xml is loading so that a
timeout error doesn't occur? or
d) something else?
thx,
Helen
No, you cannot do that without breaking the parsing up over multiple
frames.
A function is fully executed in 1 frame. The display is only updated 1
time
per frame.

Subject: [Flashcoders] Forcing Flash going to next frame while
executingcode? + MultiThreading in Flash?
Is this possible ? I have a large xml-file which is parsed. This tends
to freeze the application several seconds (in case of a really big
xml-file, a popup can occur whith script time out error). Is it possible
to force Flash to jump to a next frame without stopping the execution of
code? And is it possible to set this script time out higher?
Breaking the xml in several peaces is an option we have already done,
but still I would like to know if it is possible to force flash to a
next frame.
Another question : Is it possible to start another thread to execute
some operations in the background?
Thx, Lieven Cardoen
