hi,

thanks to all for the excellent info and updates to the xml photo gallery. i am digging this little machine quite a lot.

question:

using the simple xml photo gallery i sometimes want to have an image with no caption. when i leave that xml node blank, like this:

\<pic\>  
\<image\>4.jpg\</image\>  
\<title\>title 4\</title\>  
\<caption\>\</caption\>  
\</pic\>

flash puts “undefined” in the text field.

there must be a way to instruct flash to just leave that field blank…  
right?

any suggestions greatly appreciated.  
thanks!
