Good point.
One optional tweak:
var xml:XML = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;
xml.parseXML(someTextVar);
xml.onLoad = function(success:Boolean):Void {
if (this.status == 0) {
trace("Success!");
} else {
trace("Error in XML! Code: " + this.status);
}
}
The scope should probably be "this" instead of "xml" in this case.
