Hey ppls,
I need your help (if you can!)
I am reletively familiar with XML and how to load them in flash, but I have a new kind of file, XMP, and I was wondering if it could be loaded and used in flash similar to XML.
My XMP’s are automaticly generated by the new Adobe Lightroom software and look similar to XML’s - a copy of a file below
Image002.xmp

All the XMP’s are created the same with just the information changed and have the same name as the image the information is about. So can flash phase this kind of file?
I want to use [SIZE=3]some[/SIZE] of the information in an XML gallery with details of the pic shown from the AutoGenerated XMP file (current relevent info highlighed). Has anyone attemped to use XMP metadata in flash?
To simplify what I said above Every pic has an xmp file of the same name in the same folder as the pic. I want to use the generated information to display details about the image in an information box I am yet to create:D . The highlighted information is what I need to load at the moment but other information may come in handy when i get the page developed.
Can anyone help me out?
