Loading a ComboBox from a file
Author: Sas Jacobs | Website: http://www.sasjacobs.com |

Connecting the movie to the XML file

Loading information from an XML file requires a different approach to using a text file, so we'll use a completely new movie with the structure shown below. We will only need two layers - combo and actions - and a single frame.

Add the following text to the actions layer. It loads the sites.xml file and then stops the movie. Once the movie has loaded, the LoadCombo function will load the ComboBox component.

//create a new XML object

thisXML = new XML();

//ignore whitespace in the file

thisXML.ignoreWhite = true;

//call the LoadCombo function when the XML file is loaded

thisXML.onLoad = LoadCombo;

//load the xml file

thisXML.load("sites.xml");

stop();
