sendandLoad problem in flash AS2

Hi,

I am trying to send data to a asp.net web service.
This seems to work, but the response is in a XML format:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<boolean xmlns="http://tempuri.org/">true</boolean>
rather than just a string format of resukt = true

Flash doesnt seem to recognise that the result object of the senandload has actually loaded:

Response.onLoad = function(success:Boolean)

IS this because the web service is returning the response in XML format? and is there a way around this?

Thanks
Paul

ok thanks will give that a go.

I noticed this post from someone: - Is this a feasible alternative?

Concerning: LoadVars.sendAndLoad

You can send variable/value post information and receive xml information by using code like below.

It's a great way to work with web services and avoid using the modem-unfriendly web service connector component. can adobe confirm that this method of sending with loadVars and receiving xml will be supported in the future?

var replyXML = new XML();
replyXML.onLoad = myOnLoad;
function myOnLoad(success)
{
if (success) {
trace(replyXML);
} else {
trace('fail');
}
}

var send_lv = new LoadVars();
send_lv.postVar = "foo";
send_lv.sendAndLoad("addressOfMyWebServiceOrOtherProgram", replyXML, "POST");

Cheers
Paul
