Hi
I am trying find out how to add font style to a simple xml document I have
made.

of car.</image>
<image source = "images/Image2.jpg" thumb = "thumbnail/Image2.jpg"> picture
of orange.</image>
<image source = "images/Image3.jpg" thumb = "thumbnail/Image3.jpg">
book.</image>
<image source = "images/Image4.jpg" thumb = "thumbnail/Image4.jpg"> Poster in
Holborn.</image>

Perhaps I have missunderstood you, but you can set the font style on the text-field that displays the text.

text-field that displays the text.- do you mean inside flash ?
I am trying to change the font with this external xml file ?
apparently I can do this with css but I just cant figure out how to
compose it..

If you select your dynamic text field on the stage, you can select the font
that you want to use in the properties inspector and whatever xml data is
placed into that field will have that font. Don't forget to embed the font if
it's not standard.
