Calling XML file that is generated real-time

[ksbigfoot]

I created a picture slideshow that calls an .asp page
If I have just the XML code it works fine

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<images>
  <pic>
     <image>images/First.jpg</image>
     <caption>First Image</caption>
  </pic>
</images>

but if I add any asp tags it doesn't work

<%
  'Just a commented out line
%>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<images>
  <pic>
     <image>images/First.jpg</image>
     <caption>First Image</caption>
  </pic>
</images>

Does any one know why?
And how would I generate an XML page before the flash player loads the XML page up into memory?

is that code embedded into a FLash application? If so, I think that's the problem, I've had lots of problems with putting web languages into flash in the past other than simple html.
theres a link to a tutorial for a XML gallery on my site

Howdy hybrid11,
I am using Flash 8.
I have the XML working, I just wanted my flash to call a .asp page instead of the .xml file, then the .asp page would pass back the .xml file.

This is what I did to make it work:
What I did instead is made a separate .asp page that the user has to run and it creates an .xml file based on images in a directory. So as soon as they create the .xml file, then the next time the flash player is called, it loads in the new .xml file.

thanks again,
