Whatever you do, don't buy "Flash and XML: A Developers Guide" by Dov Jacobsen and Jesse Jacobsen - Addison-Wesley Press - besides being Flash 5, the book sucks. You get the impression these guys are much more into XML than Flash. If they even use Flash at all in their professional lives. Apologies in advance if you're on thist list and one of the authors. There's some good stuff in it, but for someone new to Flash or doing basic stuff, it's not the book for you. But even the advanced stuff lacks depth though.
