Hi, friends,

I just got another new problem.

I’m loading XML file into flash, and the apostrophe displayed as a vertical pipe in the movie.

like “it’s a beautiful day” will displayed like “it|s a beautiful day” in flash movie.

I tried copy the xml source file into a new XML document the apostrophe ’ rendered as ‘& # 1 4 6 ;’, please help me out of here, thanks indeed.
