Once again, I've hit a roadblock with Flex for something that should be easy as pie.
Here's the problem: I'm loading in an XML feed from Flickr, a list of photoset IDs. There's nothing wrong or unusual about the XML document. I load the XML into an ArrayCollection, and can view all the data just fine, except the ONE element I need... the ID number. Flex is screwing it up somehow. For example, the ID number in the XML file looks like this: 72157607109678346 However, when Flex returns the ID number, it becomes: 72157607109678350 Every ID is changed like that, but it's not consistent. The first one, 4 is added to the ID. In the next, 12 is subtracted. No rhyme or reason. What Flex is doing to this number or why it's doing it escapes me. I've tried copying the XML file locally and appending the ID with a character... it then comes across fine. So Flex thinks the ID is some kind of number datatype, and manipulating it somehow. Any idea how to make Flex cut that out?
