Yo All! :yoshi:

I have this little issue with one specific character (only one so far) while loading an external xml file into flash.  
My issue is with the apostrophe character: Even though in the xml file the text in one of the tags it’s let’s say…kirupa’s forums…flash displays it as kirupa’s forums so substituting the apostrophe with the url encoding ’

I don’t think it’s the parsing because I trace the main node as soon as it gets in flash and it displays it wrong.

I’m sure someone knows what’s happening…it’s probably rather dumb.

Thanks!!!
