Create xml?

[Sarah012]

I recently created a quiz that pulls its questions and answers from xml files.

Now I am hoping to create a second flash application that allows the user to create the xml files. I have been able to set up a user interface that allows the user to type their questions and answer into various text boxes. When they are finished they press a button and using the createElement, and appendChild codes the xml is created.

I am having a problem with the next step. How do I "save" the xml the user has created to an outside file that can latter be picked up by the Quiz. (The whole thing will be installed on the user's hard drive from a CD).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

you would need to use a thirdparty projector. A search will bring some up, I think well known ones are from...

www.northcode.com
and
www.screenweaver.com

screenweaver has always been my favourite, but it's slowly stagnating due to lack of support : (

Mostly I just wanted to mention the other big one to round out the trio : )

I'm strongly considering moving to Flash Studio Pro v2 myself. If you include the Mac OSX plugin, it's the first major 3rd party projector tool to allow exporting both Macintosh and PC projectors from the same SWF.

It does cost over $100 more than northcode's product and the plugin is another $200. If you plan on doing a ton of projector work in the future, however, it may be worth it : ) Unfortunately the only company that provides a demo is screenweaver, but there are examples and tutorials for the others so I suggest finding the one that you're most comfortable with and best suits your needs/

Good luck : )
