Flash Actionscript sending XML to Perl

[Asperon]

I am using the xml object in flash actionscript to create an xml file. it reads and parses xml from a text file, and adds to that xml file. then using the XML.send(); I want to send it to a perl file, and have the perl script write to text file. in perl, how do I set it up so that it will read accept the xml sent from the actionscript?

should it be a .pl or .cgi file?


example:

 
newElement = myXML.createElement(player1);
myXML.appendChild(newElement);
newElement = myXML.createElement(Name);
myXML.firstChild.nextSibling.appendChild(newElement);
newElement = myXML.createElement(lv);
myXMl.firstChild.nextSibling.appendChild(newElement);
myXML.send("test.pl");

if this is the same as the action= attribute of a cgi/html form:

myXML.send("test.pl");

then point the actionscript to the url of your perl script and use the CGI.pm module to get the data from the script and then do whatever you need to do with it.
