I have a flex1.5 application(I got it from cflex) that uses a
http service to connect to a database and return xml. I put my
results into a datagrid and everything was peachy. In trying to
take that app over to flex2.0 Beta my datagrid does not get
populated. I have an alert showing me the result of my httpservice
by saying result.childNodes.toString(). Can someone please look at
my code and see if you see something that will help. PLEASE????
