Does anyone know where I can find a tutorial to make a general news box that is updated via XML. So far I have made a movie clip in my library that has 3 dynamic text fields that have the instance names date_txt, headline_txt, and article_txt. I export the movie clip for actionscript and give it a linkage ID. I get as far as scripting a loop that adds mulitple of these clips on the stage, evenly spaced, but I can’t figure out how to populate each clip with unique data from an XML file. I am assuming another loop will do it.
Basically I want to add a movieclip to the stage (or another movie clip that is masked for scrolling purposes) for each news item in the XML file.
Any advice or links would be appreciated.
