I have a swf file that reads it’s properties from xml file. The name of xml file is hard coded in the fla and I must always use the same xml file name. I need the ability to specify the xml file name using a flash variable.Can anyone give me anyidea or any tutorials that will help me to do this. Thanks in advance to all of you who visited this.
