I’m building a photo gallery with XML and Flash. But want the XML data file to include HTML tags. Like \<br\> or \<font\> tags. Any suggestions ?

**current XML data (partial)**  
\<gallery\>  
\<image title=“KYOTO was the title of Roland’s photo exhibition at the Gallery of the Austrian Embassy in Tokyo (November 2005).Maiko Toshihana was featured on video” main=“images1/1.jpg” thmb=“thumbnails1/1.jpg” url="\<A href=“[http://www.landlocked.tv/maiko/index.html"/"](http://www.landlocked.tv/maiko/index.html%22/%22)\>[http://www.landlocked.tv/maiko/index.html](http://www.landlocked.tv/maiko/index.html)”/\>  
\</gallery\>

put the title and link in different nodes, then make it a link in flash.

Enclose your node values in a CDATA tag, do a search for it and you should get some info. (remember that you will need to go one node deeper too)

Thanks for the fast replies. My skills with XML are not so good yet. I need more information. I made a mistake in the pasting of the XML data.

**should be:**  
\<gallery\>  
\<image title=“KYOTO was the title of Roland’s photo exhibition at the Gallery of the Austrian Embassy in Tokyo (November 2005).Maiko Toshihana was featured on video” main=“images1/1.jpg” thmb=“thumbnails1/1.jpg” url=“[http://www.landlocked.tv/maiko/index.html](http://www.landlocked.tv/maiko/index.html)”/\>  
\</gallery\>

Works fine for normal text  
But I want to use for example to make KYOTO bold by \<b\>KYOTO\</b\>. in the xml code. How to do that? I did some searching for CDATA but was confused how to implement it.

Something like this:

```auto
    <photo filename="eu-santorini.jpg" caption="Santorini">
      <![CDATA[My favorite <b>Greek</b> Island.]]>
    </photo>

```
