HTTP Service / Progress bar

Question

Hi all,
I'd like to know if there's a solution to my problem.
I have an HTTP Service returning e4X data. As the results are
pretty big, it takes some time to display the whole thing. Is there
a solution to put a progress bar while loading the HTTP Service ?
Thanks a lot,
Have a nice day,
Cedric

I found this online but It doesnt seem to work;
If your HTTPService has id of httpService you have to first invoke an eventListener of type ProgressEvent.PROGRESS. On the stage or in your Popup you have to make a progressBar with id (for example myProgressBar)
httpService.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRES, progressFunction);
Than you have define a progressFunction that will accept broadcasted ProgressEvent like so
private function progressFunction(event:ProgressEvent):void{
myProgressBar.mode = 'manual';
myProgressBar.setProgress(event.bytesLoaded, event.bytesTotal);
//you can than do something when content is loaded
if (event.bytesLoaded == event.bytesTotal){
//code for popup removal or removal of progressBar
