Hello all,

I'm currently pitching to put together a 110 page Flash based prospectus for a local college. The finished result will be made available online, and also via CD-ROM.

The layout of the pages will be very consistent in terms of what elements appear where, only the text content and relevant imagery will change from spread to spread.

The smart solution would seem to be a template, into which the content is dynamically loaded as the user navigates, possibly from xml files. In this way amendments could be made directly to the xml, each page could be populated by a set of scripts, and I wouldn't be left with a huge and unwieldy Flash document full of static content.

Assuming I could make this work, what are the implications when it comes to delivering the same solution on CD-ROM?

Thanks
