Hello!

I’ve researched a lot of examples on how to do this and I’m almost there. I actually got it to show up in the dynamic text box, but its also displaying my **[COLOR=#ff0000]xml[/COLOR]** and css tags(The **[COLOR=#ff0000]XML[/COLOR]** file structure). I know the **[COLOR=#ff0000]xml[/COLOR]** and css files both work after testing them in my browser. Can you please assist me with fine-tuning this AS3 code. My **[COLOR=#ff0000]XML[/COLOR]** file only has one node. Below is my AS3 code:

```auto

var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoadXML);
loader.load(new URLRequest("content.xml"));
function onLoadXML(e:Event):void
{
 var **[COLOR=#ff0000]xml[/COLOR]**:XML = new **[COLOR=#ff0000]XML[/COLOR]**(e.target.data);
 //trace(**[COLOR=#ff0000]xml[/COLOR]**)
 textBox.text = e.target.data
 
}
 

```

I just need it to read the content and follow the css code that’s been attached to it.

Thanks!
