Context: I am trying to read xml data from a server, pull the data from the elements I want, and then write a new xml. I have these processes figured out independently, but when i try to pass my 'data' object to my xmlbuilder it acts like it doesn't receive. I've tried a couple different ways of trying to refer to my 'data' object and I can't figure out how to do it outside of the parseHandler class. I am new to JS(obvious)? at this point im just trying to figure out how to access the my data object contents. Thanks in advance....
