Hi Ed,
Sorry for the email confusion.

Right- OK- that file.

That one I'd tried to implement the XMLNitro code for parsing the xml, 
in an attempt to parse the xml returned faster, simpler, and cleaner.
To be honest, I don't think it was a good implimentation- here's why:
It seems to me, (and after some of Patrick's good critique) that I was 
really just me coding blindly- and not doing any planning.  I was 
attempting to deal with the results of the xmlrpc call (which wasn't 
working very well).

In the original code, (the Alpha which is online now), the Array object 
which is returned, I and some flash folks here had trouble using the 
results.

So, I (a bit blindly), set out to write a better parser, came across 
XMLNitro, and then Max Ziebel's XMLarray actionscript.
I implimented it, and while it does return results from the xmlrpc 
response, it doesn't take into account any good structure for their 
return.

In the end, I wouldn't go too far with that code.  I'm not sure where 
Patrick is at, but I'm mapping out the current Actionscript, and 
comparing it to the goals and processes outlined in the xmlrpc 
specification- to see where to code next.

I hope that wasn't confusing, and also i'm sorry to take the weekend to 
get back to you, been swamped with work lately so I've been shutting 
down my brain on weekends.

OK, with that for now,
