As2 sendandload in as3

Question

Okay this can't be that hard, but Ihave as2 script that loads
xml, then i append few tags in it and send it to a php script.
I use the following to send it
myXML.sendAndLoad("processXML.php", receiverXML);
in the processXML.php i have:
<?php
$file = fopen("guestbook.xml", "w+") or die("Can't open XML
file");
$xmlString = $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA;
if(!fwrite($file, $xmlString)){
print "Error writing to XML-file";
print $xmlString."\n";
fclose($file);
?>
Now i just can't figure out how i do that in AS3.
Can someone please help me with this?

Well, loading an xml document is fairly easy:
import flash.net.*
import flash.xml.XML
import flash.event.*
import flash.error.*
var xml:XML = new XML("<doc></doc>")
var url:String = "doc.xml";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);
loader.load(request);
function onComplete(evt:Event){ trace(evt.target.data); }
That said, if you change the URLRequest method to POST and
attach some data,
it should look like this. (Note: I don't have access to a web
server at the
moment, so this is not tested.)
import flash.net.*
import flash.xml.XML
import flash.event.*
import flash.error.*
var xml:XML = new XML("<doc><node>Hello
World</node></doc>")
var url:String = "processXML.php";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
request.method=URLRequestMethod.POST;
request.data = xml;
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);
loader.load(request);
function onComplete(evt:Event)
trace(evt.target.data);
xml = new XML(evt.target.data)
