It's actually pretty easy. XML is just text. Create a variable with your
XML, then use cffile to write it. Something like:
<cfdirectory action="" directory="qwerty" name="myPix">
<cfsavecontent variable="myXml"><?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<Slides>
<cfoutput query="myPix">
<slideNode
jpegURL="asdfg">zxcvb</slideNode>
</cfoutput>
</Slides>
</cfsavecontent>
<cffile action="" file="uiop" output="#myXml#" addnewline="Yes">

Subject: query to outout an xml file
i know nothing about xml so any help would be appriciated
im making a slideshow in flash that draws the images out of a folder and
is read by an xml file to import them into flash
flash needs to read the xml file which i just have as slides.xml
the xml looks like this
<Slides>
<slideNode jpegURL="images/image1.jpg">Picture Description.</slideNode>
<slideNode jpegURL="images/image2.jpg">Picture Description.</slideNode>
<slideNode jpegURL="images/image3.jpg">Picture Description.</slideNode>
<slideNode jpegURL="images/image4.jpg">Picture Description.</slideNode>
<slideNode jpegURL="images/image5.jpg">Picture Description</slideNode>
</Slides>
but what i would like to do is have this xml file made dynamic so I can
upload images via coldfusion and then do a db query to get the xml file so
i dont have to manually update it everytime a pic is added. But the file
needs to be an xml file & not a cfm file, so how in the heck do i do that?
ty:)
