[F8] using Var in dynamic text

[Red2034]

I am storing user.data in a shared object (username)
I am also bringing xml text into a dynamic text field later in the swf

Is there a way to use the user.data username to replace a delimited char in xml (for example if in the xml i used 'USERNAME' - could it be replaced onLoad before it populates the swf????

function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild.nextSibling;
bodyText = xmlNode.attributes.body;
popupNu = [];
popupTitle = [];
popupBody = [];

total = xmlNode.childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {

popupTitle[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
popupBody[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
}
loadPage();
} else {
content = "file not loaded!";
}
}
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load("L1.xml");




should I loadXML into an array first, then replace the delimited words in the array, finally adding them to the dynamic txt field???

or should I loadXML then replacethe words after the load???

I have found this example:
myText = "--!This is some test text!--";
String.prototype.stripSign = function() {
s1 = this.split("--!").join("");
s2 = s1.split("!--").join("");
return s2;
}
s = myText.stripSign();
trace(s);
