Okay. First of all, this goes in the flash forum.
Secondly, XML is a (pretty useless) markup language for the web
Thirdly, it will take some time to learn how to make a multiplayer game.
Lastly, don't hack. It's bad.

Oh... I see your post now. I didn't know that XML could be integrated with flash. But yeah, read those tutorials again. Here are the links again if you need them: 1, 2.

If you are a fan of homestar runner, you will probably have played this game at some point.

Stinkoman is a great example of integrating flash and XML. Basically the game engine is entirely in flash and is designed to read xml and generate the level you are playing based off of the xml file. It makes for a really flexible and expandable system. Whenever a new level needs to be added, only the xml file must be created. hope that example helps...
