[rammi07]

Hi all . I want to create a page that it pulls dynamic xml data from a remote server (in this case it is from radio station rss that inncludes artist name,song name and ...) and display it page. Here is example of remote rss xml:

- <playlist> 
- <song> 
  <artist>Artisname1</artist> 
  <name>SongName1</name> 
  <image>./song_images/artistpic1.jpg</image> 
  <rating>3</rating> 
  <songid>2624</songid> 
  <totalvotes>35</totalvotes> 
  </song> 
- <song> 
  <artist>Artistname2</artist> 
  <name>SongName2</name> 
  <image>./song_images/artistpic2.jpg</image> 
  <rating>3.5</rating> 
  <songid>4795</songid> 
  <totalvotes>14</totalvotes> 
  </song> 

</playlist>

I want the page that displays above information have the updated data at all time without refresh.I be happy if some one help me achive this goal using flash .Thanks

kennethkawamoto thanks for your reply. Unfortunelty i do not know much flash experience. Is there any sofware like swish that can make such thing for u?

I've never used Swish so I'm not sure but somehow I doubt you can put complex code using Swish.

May be Flex is easier for you - I don't know...
