You don't show what you're doing to get the string from the XML. Is local.ob.content the XMLNode? If so, in general, you extract the string with:
s:String = local.ob.content.childNodes[0].nodeValue; Unfortunately, the Flash XMLNode class doesn't recognize the CDATA node type; the string that you extract in this case may not contain what you want.
