hi there ive searched but cant find the answer to this -

ive got some dynamic \_x \_y values coming from an xml file, and i can trace these out fine. xml\_x = 300 xml\_y = 240 or whatever.

However when I try to send a mc to those values, using either load either or enterFrame the clip doesnt do anything at all.

Is this because flash is treating the 300 from \<xpos\>300\</xpos\> in my xml file as a string rather than an integer?

cheers
