Calling a webservice

talis

I tried urlloader but can not be successfully. Unfortunately I am not so good with Web technologies. So any idea if is it possible to call a Web Service from Gideros, send parameters to it and receive the result as xml or json.
Thanks

You'll want to read up a bit on using HTTP POST and GET requests. This is something I've been trying to do with the scoreoid web service: http://www.scoreoid.net/

I've an attached an example project that uses the urlloader class to send HTTP requests to the Scoreoid web service. You'll need to sign yourself up to Scoreoid and create a game first though (it's free and easy, so don't worry about that part).

As far as interacting with other web services, it will look similar to this, but not exactly the same. It's all a little over my head as well

@talis, of course it's possible, you only need to know the protocol of the service you want to connect to, @joelghill's example it's a very good starting point and additionally here you have a reference of the HTTP protocol: http://www.jmarshall.com/easy/http

@joelghill and @Javi sorry for the late thanks
I just had time to dig this out.
Thanks again.
