I need someone who is a better programmer to help me figure out why my xml app in flash is bugging out on the live site. I have two xml files that feed into the flash file at different points. I think I named some of the variables the same and in doing so nested one of the xml readers within a movie. It works except when you click to the other XML reader and then click back again.
Would love if someone could just give me a guided tour of which variable and arrays to change so that I can have both readers on the same timeline.
Can you help?!?!?

try inserting the 2 XML objects in separate movies, instead of being on the same timeline.

so do you mean have both in seperate movies within the timeline. Not a load movie action.

Unfit I do have one in a movie and one in the timeline, yet the one in the timeline comes up ok, while the one in the movie is more finicky and sows sometimes.

why not just change the names of the variables?

I have and I get no data. The codes not mine and I'm fighting to get it just to parse.
- unfittoprint0

It's not clear what's the problem. I would advise you to do the following, tough:
Create 1 FLA and use the #1 part of the code for 1 news source (news.xml). See if it's ok.
Then create another FLA and use the #2 part of the code for the other news source (trainers.xml). See if it's ok.
After that, you could create a main movie FLA and load the external swf's (the news movies) into it.
