    Hi,
    I have Flash MX and when I upload a xml file containing "", these are always converted to &quote; which I don't want. How can I get "" marks uploaded instead of &quote;?

    Do you mean the file name, something in the Flash MX file or in the XML file?

    I have "pic.jpg" in the xml file. When I load the xml file and trace it, it becomes &quote;pic.jpg&quote;.

    What do you mean? All I am doing is loading an XML file in flash and getting to the line "pic.jpg". I don't know how it is loaded.

    Depending on what you do to upload it, what happens to it can vary. What FTP client do you use?

    OK,

    the &quote; is what happens when you have "html escaped" data. You will find you < and > in your data get changed as well.

    It depends where you are seeing the problem. If it is on the server side of things (CGI, ASP, PHP etc) you will have to check the documentation for an HTML escape routine. If it is in flash use: espace(myString) and unEscape(myString)

    Here is an example from MacroMedias ActionScript dictionary:

    And unescape:

    Thanks

    Luke
