| I'm game to help, but can you give some more details of what you need to achieve? (Hello BTW, I'm originally from north of the border in Lisburn - maternal grandmother was from Clontarf - though I'm now living in the middle of England.) Best wishes, Richard |

| Hi Richard, I am from Kilkenny but I live in Newry, Northern Ireland now... I have a countdown clock written in flash and it pulls from an XML file and it tells the time to the next live service but one minute after the time elapses it says the next live service is in 8 hours or whatever and so it effectively by passes the service that is currently going on... So... I want to be able to edit the XML to show that there is a live service going on currently, so to put in something to show that the service runs from 11 am to 1 pm before it goes on to the next query in the xml... I have no idea how to do it, I can usually edit what is there easy enough but don't know enough to add my own queries... God bless, Mike. |

| I take it this is for the countdown on http://gracefellowship.ie/grace/index.php and http://gracefellowship.ie/grace/?p=19 ? Flash isn't my thing really. Is countdown_v1.swf a Flash file you've created yourself? Where does the XML data live - can I see of a copy somewhere? And how does it get loaded into the Flash movie - presumably there's some ActionScript code that reads and displays it - is it possible to dig that out? |

| Ok, I bought the flash file, it pulls from an external XML file, I asked the author about editing it and he said if he ever were to consider a version 3 he would consider it but it is not on his to do list right now... anyway i bought and paid for the file and I have the fla files, it has actionscript but most of the info is pulled from the xml... pm me your email address and I will send you the files... Mike. |

| I've had a look at the ActionScript spaghetti and the XML file, and dropped Mike a note with some suggestions on how to proceed... (not sure if you got this, Mike, or if it was any help). Never having had anything to do with Flash before there was a certain amount of hand-waving involved at the point where you actually wanted to display something. Richard |
