I am trying to load an xml file (just the content, not the tags) into a text field… I have tried every code I could find on the internet and nothing seems to work. If anyone would be kind enough to take a look at these files and help me out, it would be greatly appreciated. Unfortunately I can’t post links, but the files are on [4shared.com](http://4shared.com), and they are located at:

/document/wFyyh9-k/news.html  
and  
/file/2yslOVlZ/site.html

I am trying to load news.xml into the newsTxt field on frame 148. Also, how would I go about formatting the text (font, color, size, etc.)?

Thanks in advance 🙂
