Hi,

looking around for a tutorial or example of a flash doc that grabs \_x and \_y locations for clips from an xml file.

I’d like to create a map that has dots for location information that are placed on the map and the locations are updated via xml, or xml tied to a SQL DB.

Anyone seen anything like this?

THanks!
