[flexcoders] Re: F2B3 - Change in parsing of WebService results?

Tue, 30 May 2006 14:44:06 -0700

Hi Ben,

I'm not sure if this will help, but it's better than nothing.  I've
found that casting the result object to an ArrayCollection makes it
easier to work with the data.  Also, since you are currently working
with objects, you might try comparing to "undefined" instead
of "null".

Regards,
Tim Hoff
