Displaying HTTPService returned data in a dataGrid

Avatar

Level 1
Hello! im new to flex and i have a question that i am hoping
someone can answer. I have a flex app that i am building that needs
to display a list of dynamic images, preferably with icons. I've
built the Title list, but i don't know how to connect the
HTTPService data to the list. the HTTPService is returning XML
data, so it must be easy. but, as i said, Im really new. Please
Help Me!!

i need to display images instead of text. Thanks for the help
anyways!

The link I gave you teaches you how to make a remote call you
just need to add an image control to the app and you're done.

How do you know where the images are located?

I know by a parameter that the HTTPService sends back to me
that contains the image URL. However, the image URL is not in the
source folder in the app. It is located at a remote location, so
the url takes the form of "
http://www.test.net/09/image.jpg".
Maybe i am formatting the image wrong, because I am still getting
no result in the data grid. This is what i am getting back from the
HTTPService:



<images>

<image>

<image_name></image_name>

<image_url></image_url>

<keywords></keywords>

</image>

</images>



and this is my data grid:



<mx:DataGrid x="10" y="10" width="640" height="140"
dataProvider="{imageReturn.lastResult.images}"
id="communityImages">

<mx:columns>

<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Image" >

<mx:itemRenderer>

<mx:Component>

<mx:Image source="{image.image_url}"/>

</mx:Component>

</mx:itemRenderer>

</mx:DataGridColumn>

<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Name"
dataField="{image.image_name}"/>

<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Keywords"
dataField="{image.keywords}" visible="false" />

</mx:columns>

</mx:DataGrid>



maybe I'm formatting it wrong. I'm not sure. Help Me with
this and my problems will be solved.

The ultimate experience is back.
