Yes the only way to do it is using server side scripts as you cannot alter and save xml files....

If you're using CFM, just do a standard POST to a CFM script that updates the XML. It's more of an issue of how you can do this in Cold Fusion (which this list is probably not the best place to get help). If you create a form that has this functionality you need then flash will be able to post data to this form the same way a standard HTML page will post data.

-- Omar Fouad - Digital Emotions... Love is always patient and kind. It is never jealous. Love is never boastful nor conceited It is never rude or selfish. It does not take offense and is not resentful. Love takes no pleasure in other people's sins...but delights in the truth. It is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope... and to endure... whatever comes. _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
