Using an XML file to load Chart components - Page 4

Connecting to the XML file

Now that the movie is set up, it's time to talk to the XML file!

On the actions layer, enter the following:

//create a new XML object

thisXML = new XML();

//ignore whitespace in the file

thisXML.ignoreWhite = true;

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

thisXML.onLoad = LoadChartData;

//load the xml file

thisXML.load("text.xml");

stop();

Replace the filename text.xml with the name of your XML file. LoadChartData is the name of the function that will be run when the XML data has loaded.
