It is "better" to use the createXML() utility function because it tells the parser to ignore whitespace. If you have carriage returns in your xml string and do not tell the compiler to ignore whitespace, the xml will not work well with the tree control.

I believe there is a macromedia utility available for this.

I have an soap-function that returns a string. The content of the string: <tickets><ticket><ticketID>1</ticketID></ticket><ticket><ticketID>2</ ticketID></ticket></tickets> Of course this is just a string. Is it possible to convert the string to an xml object and then bind that object to a datagrid? I did found this : var xmlStr:String; xmlStr=ticketsService.getTickets.result; var xml:XML; xml=mx.utils.XMLUtil.createXML(xmlStr); but I don't know if this is the right way ... Yahoo!
