Ok, so I was able to get it to work, but now I'm coming across another issue.
I'm loading in xml using the old "new XML()" object and using xpath to parse. One of the fields I have looks like this. <item>Field & Stream</item>. The issue is that the value I'm getting back from xpath is "Field & Stream" and not "Field & Stream". The textfield that is being used to display is not showing the text as html and fontEmbed is false. Is there anything that I could do to fix this?
