X-Z > XMLSocket.send

Syntax

myXMLSocket.send(object);

Arguments

object An XML object or other data to transmit to the server.

Description

Method; converts the XML object or data specified in the object argument to a string and transmits it to the server, followed by a zero byte. If object is an XML object, the string is the XML textual representation of the XML object. The send operation is asynchronous; it returns immediately, but the data may be transmitted at a later time. The XMLSocket.send method does not return a value indicating whether the data was successfully transmitted.

If the myXMLSocket object is not connected to the server (using XMLSocket.connect), the XMLSocket.send operation will fail.

Player

Flash 5 or later.

Example

The following example illustrates how you could specify a user name and password to send the XML object myXML to the server:

var myXML = new XML();
var myLogin = myXML.createElement("login");
myLogin.attributes.username = usernameTextField;
myLogin.attributes.password = passwordTextField;
myXML.appendChild(myLogin);
myXMLSocket.send(myXML);
