[victormgons]

Hello everyone, I'm trying do download a XML file from a server-side script and load it to get informations, I made this script but isn't working... Can anyone help me?

function returnFunction(responseData,errno) 
  file = xmlLoadFile(responseData) 
  for i,node in pairs(xmlNodeGetChildren(file))do 
    outputChatBox(xmlNodeGetName(node)) 
  end 
end 
  
fetchRemote("http://www.w3schools.com/xml/note.xml",returnFunction)

Is the variable "sla" in "outputChatBox(xmlNodeGetName(sla))" defined?

I forgot to change before post here... But it gives this error:

Server.lua:3: bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got boolean)

Here you go, not tested hope it works. You must write response data that you got it from link or somewhere else..

function returnFunction(responseData, errno) 
    if (errno == 0) then 
        local file = fileExists("test.xml") and fileOpen("test.xml") or fileCreate("test.xml") 
        fileWrite(file, responseData) 
        fileClose(file) 
  
        local file = xmlLoadFile("test.xml") 
        for i, node in pairs(xmlNodeGetChildren(file))do 
            outputChatBox(xmlNodeGetName(node), root) 
        end 
        xmlUnloadFile(file) --added 
    end 
end 
  
fetchRemote("http://www.w3schools.com/xml/note.xml", returnFunction)
