Dear All,

I currently build a flash website with someone (PHP programer) he build the backend with php, and the backend made a xml output without a .xml file. he only gave a URL

URL : [http://www.domain.com/data/catalogue/collection?designer={$designer\_id}](http://www.domain.com/data/catalogue/collection?designer=%7B%24designer_id%7D)

and the xml content are :

\<data\>

```
&lt;collection&gt;
	&lt;id&gt;1&lt;/id&gt;
	&lt;name&gt;Amaya&lt;/name&gt;
	&lt;thumbnail&gt;/images/collection/amaya.jpg&lt;/thumbnail&gt;
&lt;/collection&gt;

&lt;collection&gt;
	&lt;id&gt;2&lt;/id&gt;
	&lt;name&gt;Balou&lt;/name&gt;
	&lt;thumbnail&gt;/images/collection/balou.jpg&lt;/thumbnail&gt;
&lt;/collection&gt;

```

\</data\>

Can some one show me how flash can take that thing, since i’m a beginner in flash action script…can you give a sample with details (sorry for my bad english)

Thanks
