Matt, Thanks for replying to all my posts.. as you could probably tell they were all related. I have gone from web services to RemoteObjects and now get XML (e4x) objects back correctly. In fact I even get charts using the XMLListCollection wrapper!
I guess the web service problem and the decoder problem are worked around for now. (just by using RemoteObjects and XMLListCollections) thanks, Thunder --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Matt Chotin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Well that logic was intentional as when we see a 0 prefix and we don't > know the type (b/c as you said we don't have the schema) we leave it as > a String.
