MACROMEDIA DIRECTOR MX 2004-DIRECTOR SCRIPTING Reference page 442

This JavaScript syntax parses the document sample.xml at MyCompany.com and calls the
parseDone function in the object testObject, which is an instance of the defined TestScript class:
parserObject = new xtra("XMLParser");
testObject = new TestScript(parserObject);
errorCode = parserObject .parseURL("http://www.MyCompany.com/sam- ple.xml",
symbol("parseDone"), testObject)
Here is the TestScript class definition:
TestScript = function (aParser) {
this.myParserObject = aParser;
}
TestScript.prototype.parseDone = function () {
if (this.myParserObject.getError() == undefined) {
trace("successful parse");
} else {
trace("Parse error:");
trace(" " + this.myParserObject.getError());
}
}

legalCharacters = "1234567890"
