Decode base64 picture from an XML-file

[antonto]

Hi flash-lovers,

I wrote a webservice returning an XML-file containing a picture in base64-encoding (byte[] ). The service works just fine, it's the decoding part in Flash MX 2004 I'm having troubles with...

I'm able to capture the XML-file and read out the tag containing the picture.

Here's the tricky part: How do I get the binairy code into an MC or other object showing the picture?

Every tip, trick or link is very much appreciated...

Hi !
Thank you Jorge for your quick reply.

Meanwhile  I succeeded in decoding the byte[] inside Flash8 but I still can't (don't know how to) get that ByteArray inside a movieclip.

Again, every tip, trick or link is very much appreciated...

The only way to recreate an image is to use RGB pixel info color inside a BitmapData. So next step is to pass binary data to HEX colors, probably using some back-end script or using posted library.
