Reference Guide

This week I am taking a look back as how you can use XML as a data source for your files. This coincides with the new section on Working with Data in the Rich Internet Guide. You will see how you can script data with ActionScript and, next week, you will learn how you can bind data to Flash Components.
In the blogs I am going to give you some tips you can leverage to get around some weird data caching features in Flash and some additional tips on how to use XML in your Applications.
