Calling a URL

[MadamZuZu]

hi :)

this is a very stupid newby question.

i can't figure out how to call a url on a click on a button, i understand that i need to have httpservices... so i have htis:

<mx:HTTPService id="sanData"
url="{myURL}"/>

but, what do i put for "onclick"?

Thanks!

this is what i'm doing:

<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
public function submitForm():void
{
formSender.send();
}
]]>
</mx:Script>

<mx:HTTPService id="formSender" url="http://google.com"/>


and this is what im getting:

[RPC Fault faultString="Error #1090: XML parser failure: element is malformed." faultCode="Client.CouldNotDecode" faultDetail="null"]

Do you want the browser to load google.com? If this is the case, you don't want to use HTTPService. Instead, you want to use the navigateToURL function (http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/201/html/passingarguments_086_11.html). The HTTPService is meant to load the actual content from an URL, such as XML data, into a Flex application.
