Hello everyone,

First off this is my first post here, so thanks for looking. And I am new to XML.

I have a Flash CS3 file that pulls in a series of images and text via an XML file. In my XML, I call the image like so:

\<image\>product1.jpg\</image\>

Works fine, but I am going to now need to move that image into another folder, and NOT move the XML file. Is it possible to reference the image file in the XML using

\<image\>…/products/images/product1.jpg\</image\>

Or how would I back up the file structure to get to it?

thanks!

Chris
