Hi,
I'm bringing in some XML from a PHP generated page. unfortunately they PHP generates the XML as follows:

Code:

<moreInfo>&lt;b&gt;Abstract Painting&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1963&lt;br /&gt;170.00 x 215.00
 cm&lt;br /&gt;Oil on canvas&lt;</moreInfo>

Rather than processing and reading the data as HTML, flash will print this out as html:

Code:

<b>Abstract Painting</b><br />1963<br />170.00 x 215.00 cm<br />Oil on canvas<br />

I'm using AS2, a HTML enabled text field and i've tried the unescape/escape function. It looks like unescape will only work on hexadecimal data.

Any ideas on how to get flash to read this as html?

Cheers,
Luke.
