hello everyone. really confused on how to go about solving a situation. Currently i know how to bind data using the xml connector. Here is what i would like to do. i have a list of products that i would like to sell through and xml file.
My problem is I would like to dynamically bind a buy now button created in flash that will grab the corresponding product information and pass it on to paypal for the user to buy.
I have seen the web assist extension on macromedia flash exchange but as far as i can tell it will only let you snap in a button currently on the stage.
But i would like to accomplish this through and xml file. any ideas or hints would be great. i have attached a sample of the xml code i plan to use. I left the paypal part empty because i dont have any idea what to put here. thanx for any help
