rephrase you question, its vague

are you trying to make a pop-up?

well the user gives the xml file .the actionscript code reads the xml file and performs certain actions.I want the action script code to be processed after the user feeds the xml file on say my webpage.How do I create the corresponding swf file from there?

this post belongs to the AS2 forum.

I’m not sure of what you’re tryng to accomplish… but it sounds like you want to load an external swf?.. or simply execute some actions when the user presses a button?

I don’t really understand your question either.

Explain it step-by-step if needed.

1. user enters webpage
2. user clicks button X
3. etc…

That might be easier if your question is hard to phrase.
