Thanks for the response. I took a look at the docs and some other sites and made some of the changes
<mx:HTTPService id="tempXML" url="https://mysite.net/interface.php?action=showopen&operation=showassets&format=xml&opstatus=defect&rand=12345645647"; ></mx:HTTPService> <mx:TileList dataProvider="{tempXML.asset.fleet}" width="344" backgroundColor="#000000" color="#ff0000" fontSize="27" borderColor="#000000" columnWidth="300" rowHeight="50" themeColor="#808080" fontWeight="bold" allowMultipleSelection="true" id="TileList1" height="0" y="202" x="178"/> <mx:Button label="Refresh Page Now" height="27" fillAlphas="[1.0, 1.0]" fillColors="[#030000, #030000, #474545, #474545]" borderColor="#DCDEDF" click="HTTPService.send()"/> but now I'm getting 2 errors 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method send through a reference with static type Class. 1119: Access of possibly undefined property asset through a reference with static type mx.rpc.http.mxml:HTTPService.

Still trying to see what's going on now. --- In [email protected], Alger Werft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Use <mx:HttpService id="httpService"/> to load the XML. > > Take a look at > http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/2/langref/mx/rpc/http/mxml/HTTPService.html#includeExamplesSummary > > When clicking the button, call httpService.send() again. > > > Alger > > > markcavins wrote: > > > > > > Hello, > > > > I am trying to reset the data when a user clicks on a button but have > > made no headway on getting this done > > > > at first I create the initial view > > > > <mx:XML id="tempXML" > > source="https://mysite.net/interface.php?action=showopen&operation=showassets&format=xml&opstatus=defect > > <https://mysite.net/interface.php?action=showopen&operation=showassets&format=xml&opstatus=defect>" > > /> > > > > <mx:TileList dataProvider="{tempXML.asset.fleet}" > > width="344" backgroundColor="#000000" color="#ff0000" fontSize="27" > > borderColor="#000000" columnWidth="300" rowHeight="50" > > themeColor="#808080" fontWeight="bold" allowMultipleSelection="true" > > id="TileList1" height="0" y="202" x="178"/> > > > > > > All of my data shows up and everthing here is hunky dory.
