OK, that is not the problem, because that works.

But the thing is that the html-codes in the xml are plain text in my textfield.  
Instead of making a link to a website, the text reads “\< a href=”…" "  
where i should get a link… The textfield is \<\> checked.

in the file you’ll find my php-page (to output the xml) and the flash-file.  
You can download it [here](http://www.nookyalur.com/file.zip)

i’ve been looking and searching for the UTF-8 stuff but right now, i’m going crazy…
