Hi, I have an application called "parent.mxml" and a component called "child.mxml". child.mxml has an httpservice that gets sent via creation complete w/in the child.mxml. How can I change it so that this httpservice gets sent from the parent and the parent then passes the array to the child? I've gone through the parent/child docs at http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=modular_7.html but it isn't sinking in.....thx!
Here's my simplified code for parent: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; xmlns:local="*" xmlns:comp="components.*" > <mx:TabNavigator width="100%" height="100%"> <local:child/> </mx:TabNavigator> </mx:Application> Here's the code for child.mxml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Module xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; width="100%" height="100%" creationComplete="init();" > <mx:HTTPService id="text" url="text.php" fault="httpFaultHandler(event)" result="httpResultHandler(event)"/> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.events.ListEvent; import mx.collections.ArrayCollection; import mx.controls.Alert; import mx.rpc.events.FaultEvent; import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent; [Bindable] private var textdata; private function changeHandler(event:ListEvent):void{ } public function init():void{ text.send(); } private function httpFaultHandler(event:FaultEvent):void{ Alert.show("doesn't work","Error"); } private function httpResultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void{ textdata = event.result.entries.entry; } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:DataGrid dataProvider="{textdata}" width="100%" height="100%" > <mx:columns> <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="name" headerText="name" color="black"/> <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="date" headerText="date" color="black"/> </mx:columns> </mx:DataGrid> </mx:Module>
