thanks. Yes you are right, my code is more complicated. But since
I am using Cairngorm, this is the way that I need to do it. In Cairngorm
architecture you put all you HTTPServices in one file in mxml tags like:
<mx:HTTPService url = "----------------------"/>
<mx:HTTPService url = "----------------------"/>
You instantiate and send the http request from another file where you
also
add and declare the fault and result handler. So When you send the
HTTP request you will dynamically add the result and fault handler during
run time. That is what I was trying to do....
I guess my main problem is I am not processing the resultEvent proporly
