Question

Change RSS text to local text file

I'm building a flash file which currently has a RSS feed as its text source.  I believe this is the code which pulls that file:

private const RSS_URL:String = "website address";

Since I am so new to ActionScipts (by the way I am on Flash Professional CC) I just don't know how to go from pulling RSS to taking the text located in a local text file.

replace the text in blue with the local url.

That did not work.  I changed it to "mycrawl.txt" and no text appeared in the test movie.

that's a file name, not a url.

find the code that loads RSS_URL and post that.
