Simple Scoreboard Project HELP!

Hello all,

I’ve been digging and digging and I can’t seem to find the answers I seek. Here is what I’m attempting to do:

2 swf files running at the same time

One swf to take in three pieces of information (name, hometown, and time) and save each new entry to a local xml file that the other can read, and holds all previous entries as well saving new entries as new nodes within the same file.

One swf to parse the data and display full-screen the top ten scores and the names and hometowns of each player on separate display.

My question is whether there is a simpler way to go about this because I have not found any way to take the input text data and save it to an xml (though I’m sure there are many ways).

Any suggestions would be appreciated!
