[RESOLVED] create xml file before page loads

[jmartinez]

I have a php script that writes an xml file with data from mysql - No problems here

The xml file is loaded with random data and links for a flash file that rotates images and has clickable links - again no problem here

My question is:
Is there a way to preload the xml file in my index.php file before the flash begins to load. The issue is that the xml file is being created and properly filled with data but the flash files are loading to early and therefore reading the xml file as empty so it will not load data.

I have attempted to use

include_once("createxml.php");

in the very top of my index.php page. But it does not work.

Why not have the flash file send its request to the script that generates the XML, and have that script send the XML back as its response?

Weedpacket-

It does this already.. Apparently you need to have the image directory properly mapped in the xml file... huh imagine that...

Anyhow chaulk this one up to user error, I now have it working as it should.

Thanks man!
