Components can be MXML or Actionscript. You can also include a script file like
so:
<fx:Script source="myscript.as" />

Something like this:
protected var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
protected function fileLoaded(event:Event):void{
// parse event.target.data
}
protected function fileError(event:Event):void{
// error
}
public function load():void {
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, fileLoaded);
loader.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, fileError);
loader.load(new URLRequest("data.txt"));
}
But if you're doing that I suggest you keep the data in XML not plain text
format.
Thanks,
Justin
