Hi I am using an XML image Gallery that uses an XML doc as the DB for my image
gallery.
I want to write HTML code fro the text in the <link> node but Flash doesn't
recognize the HTML.
Any ideas?

thanks

<link>AgamaGuaynabo, Puerto RicoConstruction Phase 2005 The Agama
Residence is located in the outskirts of the city of Guaynabo. Being a rural
area we explore the duality of enclosing and sheltering the occupant from the
exterior tumult of the street in order to disclose them into the natural
environment that dwells behind the house. An undulating ?L? shape wall divides
the ?public? front of the house from the rear ?private? courtyard. A series of
architectural elements provide a layered transition from solid to translucent,
establishing this junction between house and nature. Thus nature play an
important role in the house as light defines forms and shapes; and wind and
water generate continuous flows which activate the spaces and its inhabitants.

Hi Juan, that can easily be handled with CDATA tags. Google it up, you'll get more tutorials than you can shake a stick at.
