Hi Tracy, That's just it... I cant figure out how to "just assign the result to the ArrayCollection (or XMLListCollection) in the result handler" :-(
What could the code look like in my first <Snip> below? TIA Danny PS: you could so solve this in 15mins, I guess it would be rude to ask for 'remote desktoping' or even a voice call over the web/fone..! Do you do any kind of (paid) remote support, even for a poor secondary school network admin :-| --- In [email protected], "Tracy Spratt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Don't bother with binding in this case, just assign the result to the > ArrayCollection (or XMLListCollection) in the result handler. > > Tracy > > > > ________________________________ > > From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of tweakfreak33 > Sent: Monday, April 16, 2007 5:03 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [flexcoders] Binding ArrayCollection to HTTPService > method="POST" > > > > Hi All, > > Firstly apologies for posting all this code!
