ActionScript 2.0 Language Reference - Adobe Help and Support

onLoad (XML.onLoad handler)
onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {}
Invoked by Flash Player when an XML document is received from the server. If the XML
document is received successfully, the success parameter is true. If the document was not
received, or if an error occurred in receiving the response from the server, the success
parameter is false. The default, implementation of this method is not active. To override the
default implementation, you must assign a function that contains custom actions.
Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 5
Parameters
success:Boolean - A Boolean value that evaluates to true if the XML object is successfully
loaded with a XML.load() or XML.sendAndLoad() operation; otherwise, it is false.
Example
The following example includes ActionScript for a simple e-commerce storefront application.
The sendAndLoad() method transmits an XML element that contains the user's name and
password, and uses an XML.onLoad handler to process the reply from the server.
var login_str:String = "";
var my_xml:XML = new XML(login_str);
var myLoginReply_xml:XML = new XML();
myLoginReply_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
myLoginReply_xml.onLoad = function(success:Boolean){
};
if (success) {
if ((myLoginReply_xml.firstChild.nodeName == "packet") &&
(myLoginReply_xml.firstChild.attributes.success == "true")) {
gotoAndStop("loggedIn");
} else {
gotoAndStop("loginFailed");
}
} else {
gotoAndStop("connectionFailed");
}
my_xml.sendAndLoad("http://www.flash-mx.com/mm/login_xml.cfm",
myLoginReply_xml);
