[LEFT][COLOR=#000000][FONT=Arial]I’m loading the cuepoint name,time, and type from a XML file. They work fine when they are typed in directly, but I don’t want to hardcode any numbers into SWF. Since, the times are expected to change through translation of the FLV. [/FONT][/COLOR]

When I load in the XML, I am tracing it and I get 3.226 as the time, and to be sure I parseFloat(), the returned XML value, but then when I run it, the cuepoints don’t function. Any ideas?
