Hello All,

I'm new to Flash and I have been through all the tutorials and have gotten everything to work, but not one tutorial or my web searches have been able to help me with this one. I want to simply be able to read an XML file (XMLConnector), display/edit it (editable Data Set), and WRITE the changes back to the same file (XMLConnector). If I can read the data why oh why can't I write it back to the file, without using ASP, PHP, LSD...? Help.

Flash can load different files but can't write files on the server due to Security policy implemented by Macromedia and Adobe ... or in other words, that's the way it works

Thanks, but after reading the article for which you provided a link, everything I am doing is not only in the same domain (no cross-domain issue here), I am doing it in the same directory. So, it just appears that Macromedia/Adobe did not see fit to allow a write-to-file operation, only a read-from-file. Thanks again. I will learn PHP.
