Hi, using Cp 8.01.

I'd like to read text data from a text or XML file into a variable to display as a message (using a Shape) on my Cp project. Can I do this without using Javascript?

Thank you.

Working now. This example only works if the XML file is on the server.

Thanks Lilybiri, I though so.

I tried the sample project from the Captivate Common JS Interface page (http://adobe.ly/1Jy9UML), but it doesn't work. Data from XML file doesn't show. Any suggestions? Thanks.
