Loading a RSS feed into Flash
Posted by Helmut | Filed under Flash Bits
ActionScript:
- // create a new XML object
- var sports:XML = new XML();
- // set the ignoreWhite property to true (default value is false)
- sports.ignoreWhite = true;
- // After loading is complete, trace the XML object
- sports.onLoad = function(success) {
- trace(sports);
- };
- // load the XML into the sports object
- sports.load("http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/sports");

I want to use your “Loading RSS feed into Flash” script and it works fine, but I do not know how to capture the output and save it as an xml file. My ultimate objective is to have just the entries from the xml displayed in a list component.
Best regards,
