I put the trace call in the resultHandler function and then told it to print to a text area through binding. Still throws error...doesn't like the trace statement.
I tried the other items you suggested and continously throws errors. It says the XMLListColletion doesnt' exist. Think you mean XMLList which I also tried and still throwing errors. I have used Jamies so far and it is working so far, but still having issues with getting out the XML I want. Trying different XML format. Thanks, Jason > > Just use evt.result.
