[CS3 AS2] Need to load ext language XML

[Groveman]

Hi all,

I would reall appreciate some help as I need to load an external XML file depending on the user platform language. For example en, fr or de. I have a script which loads an external XML file, but I need to expand/modify this script to select which language XML to load.

Many thanks in advance.

menuXML.load("mainMenuXML.xml");

something like this should work:

trace(System.capabilities.language);
var targetXML:String;
switch (System.capabilities.language) { 
 case "cs" : 
 trace("Czech"); 
 targetXML = "cs_XML.xml"
 break; 
 case "da" : 
 trace("Danish");
 targetXML = "da_XML.xml"
 break; 
 case "nl" : 
 trace("Dutch");
 targetXML = "nl_XML.xml"
 break;  
 case "de" : 
 trace("German"); 
 targetXML = "de_XML.xml"
 break; 
 case "es" : 
 trace("Spanish"); 
 targetXML = "es_XML.xml"
 break; 
 case "it" : 
 trace("Italian"); 
 targetXML = "it_XML.xml"
 break;  
 case "en" : 
 trace("English"); 
 targetXML = "en_XML.xml"
 break; 
 case "fi" : 
 trace("Finnish"); 
 targetXML = "fi_XML.xml"
 break; 
 case "fr" : 
 trace("French"); 
 targetXML = "fr_XML.xml"
 break; 
 case "ja" : 
 trace("Japanese"); 
 targetXML = "ja_XML.xml"

 targetXML = "hu_XML.xml"

 targetXML = "zh-CN_XML.xml"
 break; 
 case "sv" : 
 trace("Swedish"); 
 targetXML = "sv_XML.xml"
 break;  
 case "zh-TW" : 
 trace("Traditional Chinese"); 
 targetXML = "zh-TW_XML.xml"
 break; 
 case "tr" : 
 trace("Turkish"); 
 targetXML = "tr_XML.xml"
 break;
