Perfect example of what we are talking about: >>I have a noobie question that cannot be answered on the noob list.

I'm going to get sort of "unfriendly" for a moment. I hate to, but I think this illustrates the topic at hand. Matt, What makes you think it can't be answered on the newbie list? And if you've been told it's a newbie question, then why NOT ask the newbie list? We've actually answered your questions here on Flashcoders regarding that a hundred different ways. I think the real problem here, Count Chocula, is you're not employing basic debugging routines. You're also assuming that to "get an mp3 player to get it's xml list through a Flashvar in the embed tag" is a single problem to tackle with a single answer. It's not. That's two separate issues to tackle at minimum. First tackle getting a string from Flashvars. Then push that string to your mp3 player and debug that. I think the trace() function will help you a lot. At least spread some around and tell us what you see. That will be a lot more useful to us in helping you than just complaining you still can't get it working and asking us to use our please use our "Actionscript Super Powers" to save you. :) Jason Merrill Bank of America Learning Technology Solutions >>-----Original Message----- >>From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:flashcoders- >>[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Matt Mc >>Sent: Tuesday, June 13, 2006 12:21 PM >>To: Flashcoders mailing list >>Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] Flash coders content degrading >> >>Hello I am a Noob, >> >>I have a noobie question that cannot be answered on the noob list.
