Hey all Im stuck at the moment... I need to make a flash file to show some poems...
As the poems are changing constantly i want to make it that the Flash file simply get them from a text file...
now i seen one or two tutorials on how to get a flash document to read from a txt file but this is diffrent i need the presentation to make it either slides + OR make a tree out of it...
I dnt mind how this is done, but i really need find a way of doing it, if its the tree idea i need it to be organised into catogories... (is there a way of doing this using DIR?)
Need a script to read one text file and create many slides

Instead of using a normal plain .txt file, I would rather go for XML, there you have more capabilities of organizing all the stuff.

XML is extremely simple, basic XML is just like normal HTML but it is based on your own tags.
It only gets complicated when you start learning about Schemas and DTDs, but you shouldn't need them for this kind of thing anyway.
