XMLListCollection

Question

Hello all you Flexers...
I have a bunch of data in an XMLListCollection. The
collection has 3 levels to it: Table or View is the top level,
followed by table / view name, followed by field name.
This data in the collection is being used in a checked tree
control. Each of the field names can be checked or unchecked. When
the user presses an update button I need to be able to send the
date in the XMLListCollection (as seen by the tree control) back to
ColdFusion.
My question is what is the best method for returning data
from a XMLListCollection to ColdFusion and how would I format the
data??? I.E. should I loop through the XMLListCollection (how do I
do that???) to populate an array and then send the array back to
CF???
Oh a little code snippet would be appreciated too!!! :)
Have an Ordinary Day...

Just send it as a string and manipulate the XML on the CF
side.
I would make sure you have a root tag, though since handling
collections of xml nodes can be tricky in many languages.
var sXML:String = "<root>;
sXML += myXMLListCollection.toXMLString();
sXML += "</root>;
var oRequest:Object = new Object();
oRequest.xmlstring = sXML;
myHTTPService.send(oRequest);
