infopop's "ultimate bulletin board" forum program has the ability to dynamically pull information from the message board and place it somewhere else. for example, you can display the 5 most recent posts on the board within a little table on your homepage.

i'd like to do something similar, except display the most recent posts within a flash movie on my homepage.

the message boards allow you to output the data in a few different ways:

ssi includes (html file)
javascript include (js file)
rss agent (xml file)

outputting the information dynamically is easy enough -- its just a setting inside the message board program that, when set properly, gives you the xml, html, or js file string that you can then take and enter somewhere else -- in my case, a flash file.

i just don't know what do do in flash once i have the above. i was hoping someone here could walk me through how i get the flash movie to display the information?

thanks
