Flash and CFML

["idesdema" <webforumsuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just posted this same question but was in the wrong section of the forums.  I 
am very new to flash but can definitely see the potential of this software with 
my first tute completed.  I learned how to show a slideshow in flash using an 
xml file.  However, I want to see if its possible to have the flash file call a 
different xml file based on a variable.  I'm sure I can do this but want to 
know how.  Currently I have this in my flash file...

 slides_xml = new XML();
 slides_xml.onLoad = startSlideShow;
 slides_xml.load("slides.xml");
 slides_xml.ignoreWhite = true;


 I want to do something along the lines of this...

 slides_xml = new XML();
 slides_xml.onLoad = startSlideShow;

 If #user_id# is not null
 slides_xml.load("#user_id#_slides.xml");

 else
 slides_xml.load("slides.xml");


 slides_xml.ignoreWhite = true;


 Can I do this?
