OK, sorry I took so long to respond, so here's the source:
package {
import flash.display.*;
import flash.events.*;
import flash.net.*;
public class xmlcom extends Sprite {
public function xmlcom() {
handleSave();
}
private function handleSave():void {
// Create a new XML instance containing the data to be saved
var dataToSave:XML=<Point><PointID>913</PointID></Point>;
// Point the request to the script that will handle the XML
var request:URLRequest=new URLRequest("http://localhost:1450/bajci/testcom.aspx");
// Set the data property to the dataToSave XML instance to send the XML
// data to the server
request.data=dataToSave;
// Set the contentType to signal XML data being sent
request.contentType="text/xml";
// Use the post method to send the data
request.method=URLRequestMethod.POST;
// Create a URLLoader to handle sending and loading of the XML data
var loader:URLLoader=new URLLoader;
// When the server response is finished downloading, invoke handleResponse
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,handleRespo nse);
// Finally, send off the XML data to the URL
loader.load(request);
}
private function handleResponse(event:Event):void {
try {
// Attempt to convert the server's response into XML
var success:XML=new XML(event.target.data);
trace(success);
} catch (e:TypeError) {
// Display an error message since the server response was not understood
trace("Could not parse XML response from server.");
}
}
}
}
and here's the server side script in .net:
using System;
using System.Data;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Collections;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;
// added
using System.Web.Configuration;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Xml;
public partial class testcom : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string PointID = "0";
string xString = Server.UrlDecode(Request.Form[0]);
System.IO.StringReader sr = new System.IO.StringReader(xString);
XmlTextReader xmlReader = new XmlTextReader(sr);
while (xmlReader.Read())
{
if (xmlReader.IsStartElement())
{
switch (xmlReader.Name)
{
case "PointID":
PointID = xmlReader.ReadString();
break;
// other case statements here
}
}
}
// start creating xml response
XmlTextWriter xmlWriter = new XmlTextWriter(Response.OutputStream, System.Text.Encoding.UTF8);
// start xml document with header attributes
xmlWriter.WriteStartDocument();
xmlWriter.WriteStartElement("Pointsummary");
xmlWriter.WriteAttributeString("PointID", PointID);
xmlWriter.WriteStartElement("SuccessCode");
xmlWriter.WriteString("1");
xmlWriter.WriteEndElement();
xmlWriter.WriteEndElement();
xmlWriter.WriteEndDocument();
xmlWriter.Close();
}
}
and here's the error flash throws:
Error opening URL 'http://localhost:1450/bajci/testcom.aspx'
Error #2044: Unhandled ioError:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: http://localhost:1450/bajci/testcom.aspx
at xmlcom/::handleSave()
at xmlcom$iinit()
and here's the same thing only remove the server side script part that is looking for a response in xml:
using System;
using System.Data;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Collections;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;
// added
using System.Web.Configuration;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Xml;
public partial class testcom : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string PointID = "913";
// start creating xml response
XmlTextWriter xmlWriter = new XmlTextWriter(Response.OutputStream, System.Text.Encoding.UTF8);
// start xml document with header attributes
xmlWriter.WriteStartDocument();
xmlWriter.WriteStartElement("Pointsummary");
xmlWriter.WriteAttributeString("PointID", PointID);
xmlWriter.WriteStartElement("SuccessCode");
xmlWriter.WriteString("1");
xmlWriter.WriteEndElement();
xmlWriter.WriteEndElement();
xmlWriter.WriteEndDocument();
xmlWriter.Close();
}
}
and flash returns and traces the little xml doc perfectly so the script is communicating back to flash great with no errors.
And here's Adobe's response concerning the problem:

Hi Skip,
Thank you for your consistent reply.
I actually consulted my senior already regarding this. If you really
wish to use the URLRequest class then you would have to do some
workaround on the server side how to
truncate ore remove the "data=" part of the passed value. If you are
using php, you need to create a php function that would eliminate this
part for you to get the exact tags.
This is what you can do as of now. If you think this feature is really
needed you may post a feature request on our site:
http://www.adobe.com/go/wish
I hope this information has helped you.
Thanks and have a nice day.
