Hi,

I've got 2 files, my Application and a custom component. In my component I have a httpservice and a string named _requestUrl that is bindable. The httpservice uses this.

<mx:HTTPService id="srv"
                    url="{_requestUrl}"
                    result="parseHttpResult(event)"
                    resultFormat="xml"
                    method="GET"
                    useProxy="false">

    </mx:HTTPService>

In my application file I make an instance of my component in the onCreationComplete function.

In this function if I say

mycomponent._urlRequest ="http://mysite.com" the httpservice throws a null url error but if I say mycomponent.srv.url="http://mysite.com" it works fine.

Why is this?
