Okay…I am by no means a programmer, but more a designer trying to be a programmer 😉  
I need to build a quiz type product finder for a project I am working on. It will ask a question, and whatever the user selects basically dictates what the next question will be. There is a total of 27 questions. I need to be able to edit the questions and answers externally, so I am thinking XML something like this:

\<?xml version=“1.0” encoding=“utf-8” standalone=“yes”?\>  
\<quiz\>  
\<question text=“What type of pen tip do you like to write with?”\>  
\<answer1\>Fountain Tip\</answer1\>  
\<answer2\>Rounded Tip\</answer2\>  
\<answer3\>Square Tip\</answer3\>  
\<answer3\>Felt Tip\</answer3\>  
\</question\>

Anybody ever do something like this before? I need help with starting out and the logic because I don’t really know where to start other than actually getting the flash file to load the xml data. Anyone? thanks ahead of time…
