		resultFormat="e4x" was a huge step forward for me

		In this example my server receives the POST form variables email and password and validates the user to return the user_id and email_address .  The output from the server page that was POSTed to returns the following exactly as it is here:

<results>
    <user_id><![CDATA[ 1 ]]></user_id>
    <email_address><![CDATA[ dylan.valade@pinelakedesign.com ]]></email_address>

</results>

		fault="loginFault(event)"
		result="loginResult(event)"

Do you feel this would be a good way to send variables triggered by Cue Points in a flash video. I want to set a coupel cue points in a flash video and when they are triggered send a message that eventually chages out content in a HTML document.

IE Content specific information…similiar to what you expect from CC but rich media.

So a flash or Flex player is playing laong, hits a Cue Point which triggers my object and passes it a URL string. As above it sends it via MyObj to a MySQL database in my case. Then a JS object is listening for the object and populates a given content area with a SWF, JPG, Text or whatever that is in the data row…

Am I on the right track? I have been trying to run this down for a week…spent all last night reading up on External Class…

I updated the entry above, hope that helps.
