php generated xml vs hand typed

[rd42]

php generated xml does not display images in flash, but the hand typed does, any ideas?

Could this be caused by the filename being .php instead of .xml? I can't see any difference in the XML from the PHP vs the hand typed XML.

I'm using ActionScript 3.0, Flash CS3.



PHP generated XML (view source from php file data3.php) - doesn't work

<?xml version="1.0"?>

Flash load function for php xml file

x.onLoad = function(success) {
    var photos:Array = this.firstChild.childNodes;
    for(i=0;i<photos.length;i++) {
        urls.push(photos[i].attributes.url);
        captions.push(photos[i].attributes.caption);
    }
    holder.loadMovie(urls[0]);
    caption.text = captions[0];
    whoIsOn = 0;
}

x.load("data/data3.php"); 

Hand typed XML - works - data3.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>

Flash load function for xml data3.xml

x.onLoad = function(success) {
    var photos:Array = this.firstChild.childNodes;
    for(i=0;i<photos.length;i++) {
        urls.push(photos[i].attributes.url);
        captions.push(photos[i].attributes.caption);
    }
    holder.loadMovie(urls[0]);
    caption.text = captions[0];
    whoIsOn = 0;
}

x.load("data/data3.xml");

Try removing the XML declaration from the PHP and see if it makes a difference.

You should set an appropriate content-type:

header('Content-Type: application/xml');
