Hi All,

I’m a total newby at XML stuff. I try to create a dynamic web gallery in flash that feeds it’s content from a XML DB, so it’s easy to update and maintain the gallery (right?!).  
What I have is the gallery specs in the flash movie itself:

// container dimensions  
// is that even necessary?  
movieW = 650;  
movieH = 600;

loadURL = new array();

loadURL[0] = “01”;  
loadURL[1] = “02”;  
loadURL[2] = “03”;

loadW = new array();  
loadW[0] = 338;  
loadW[1] = 450;  
loadW[2] = 522;

loadH = new array();  
loadH[0] = 450;  
loadH[1] = 338;  
loadH[2] = 400;

and then the gallery process - so how can I subsitute this for a XML DB?

Thanks, I appreciate your input.

M.
