Example
The following example creates a new XML document and checks its default content type:
// create a new XML document
var doc:XML = new XML();
// trace the default content type
trace(doc.contentType); // output: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
The following example defines an XML packet, and sets the content type for the XML object.
The data is then sent to a server and shows a result in a browser window.
var my_xml:XML = new XML("<highscore><name>Ernie</name><score>13045</
score></highscore>");
my_xml.contentType = "text/xml";
my_xml.send("http://www.flash-mx.com/mm/highscore.cfm", "_blank");
