That way works, but a better way is to process the event instead of
referencing lastResult on your HTTPService. The event itself is of
type ResultEvent, and you'd process is similar to the following:
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.controls.Alert;
import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;
protected function defaultResult(event:ResultEvent):void
{
var result:Object = event.result;
if(result.errorCode > 0)
Alert.show(result.errorText);
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:HTTPService
id="stations_info_request"
url="http://web2/massmc/xml.php"
useProxy="false"
method="POST"
showBusyCursor="true"
resultFormat="e4x"
result="defaultResult(event)"/>
