My preferred method to date is to use LoadVars and access the .Net web services over a standard HTTP request. The reason for this is that I can easily write my own WebServices class that extends LoadVars, and it ends up being lighter and faster than the one Adobe provides.
I haven't tried the Remoting method, although I would like to at some point since the built-in compression would be highly desirable: XML web service responses can end up being bloated due to the size of all the tags. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of j.c.wichman Sent: Thursday, May 18, 2006 10:46 AM To: 'Flashcoders mailing list' Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] .NET and XML Web services Hi Jason, u probably can, but you dont *have* to use remoting. You can create a reference to the webservice by simply using: new WebService("http://location to your webservice here.asmx?wsdl", this.logger); Look at this one for example http://www.flash-db.com/services/tutorials/mxclasses/mxwebservices.php?page= 2 I do think you need to include the WebserviceClasses in your swf, by dropping them in your library (from window, common libraries). Drop a button on your stage, name it result_btn, and copy and paste the code from the example. greetz Hans ________________________________ > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf > Of Merrill, Jason > Sent: Thursday, May 18, 2006 4:35 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [Flashcoders] .NET and XML Web services > > I've been using XML in Flash for a while, just by loading in > a physical XML file from a server.
