Here is a bit of sample code, general, not using your app, but it might
help.
In your case the row that reads:
var xlMyListData:XMLList = xmlResult.myListData;
might be
var xlMyListData:XMLList = xmlResult.stafflist.staffid;
Tracy
Sample code using HTTPService, e4x, handler function to populate a list
item
The DataGrid tag:
<mx:DataGrid id="dg" dataProvider="{_xlcMyListData}" .../>
The HTTPService tag:
<mx:HTTPService id="service" resultFormat="e4x" result="onResult(event)"
fault="..../>
Script block declaration:
import mx.rpc.Events.ResultEvent;
[Bindable]private var _xlcMyListData:XMLListCollection;
Result Handler function:
private function onResult(oEvent:ResultEvent):void {
var xmlResult:XML = XML(event.result); //converts
result Object to XML. can also use "as" operator
var xlMyListData:XMLList = xmlResult.myListData; //depends on xml
format, is row data
_xlcMyListData = new XMLListCollection(xlMyListData); //wrap the
XMLList in a collection
trace(_xlcMyListData.toXMLString()); //so you can see
exactly how to specify dataField or build labelFunction
}//onResult

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Binding ArrayCollection to HTTPService
method="POST"
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 :-|
