Ok! I have been working on an RSS reader for Flash, and I am trying to get a dyncamic text to read a part of the XML file. So for instance, I do this:  
(this is just a part)  
\<item\>  
\<title\>This is the Title\</title\>  
…  
Okay, well flash reads this as an element instead of a text node.  
I put it in quotes, and it still said it was an element.  
How do I make it into a text node?

Thanks/
