Hey,  
my XML looks somthing like this:

```auto
<pro n="school
art book 1" l="tmp" u="08/07" d="examination book 1">

```

everything works fine, but the "  
" does not create a new line when loaded into flash. I’m not sure how to fix this problem, but if I try hard-coding the  
in my actionscript file it works fine.

I hope this is easy to answer, thanks for the help/reading,  
Dan

PS I dont want to have to loop through the string and replace somthing with the "  
" in flash.
