Y'know, that's a *real* good question, and I'm sure it would be handy...

with Flash's ability to pull in distant data in URL-encoded,

comma-delimited name=value pairs, it would be great to parse some

XML-formatted document down to such an URL list.


There would be some ambiguities, sure... an XML-formatted document contains

much more structure than just a set of name/value tokens... you might

decide to just send attributes across, or to work with a particular type of

XML document that actually consisted of name=value pairs....


Do you have a particular data source in mind, Tom? Depending on its

structure, it may be easy to set up some Perl or other routine to

manipulate that string.
