Problems while making a MovieMaker with different transition and music.

Question

Hi..I am making a MovieMaker in flash.I dont have much of experince in flash ,There are some problems which I am facing.kindly guide me..Thanks.
There are 4 things in my project.
1)Uploading Images-First of all User will Upload the images,Based on those uploads there will be one xml generated which will be stored in a disc and by that xml the images uploaded be the users will be get in the flash.
Problem1-How to generate an xml file that would be stored in disc or localhost through which we can get the path of images?
2)Theme Selection-After the images have been uploaded and xml file have been generated then then the images would be loaded in one window.This is for the purpose of viewing those images that has been uploaded by users.After that there is one button below the window "Select Theme".In clicking that Button there is simply another frame opens (by removing child of the previous frames) in which there are some dummy animationswhich are already made .Like in oneAnimation there are 9 Transition effects fading,fly,spiral etc etc and in another Animation there are another 9 effects like zoom,blend  and so onetc.User can select one theme out of suppose 9 themes then that theme is the theme of their movie.There is one file called themes.xml tahat containes all the information of the themes.After the theme is selected ,There is button in ThemeSelection called Select Music.
3)Music Selection-There are categories of songs like sad,instrumental,slow,pop etc,In each category there are some songs that are stored in server.Whatever the user will select that will be the theme song.songs are also fetching from xml.After selecting the song there is Make Movie Option in the music frame.
4)Make Movie-Finally based on the above selection the movie is generated which should create new swf dynamically and user can download that movie also with above theme and music selection and those images should play that theme with the background music as selected by user.
Problem2:-How to generate new swf that donot take images.xml,transition.xml and songs.xml.First of all i dont know how to create new swf at run time while using the file operations.and
Problem 3-secondly if i made some swf supposingly movie.swf then whatever the user selected then based on those images,theme and songs selection i called the movieClip object of the movie.swf and all those images with the selected transition and background music are playing in it BUT they need the xml files and images.But i want to give the user one independant swf which dont use xml files and images folder.How can i do that?
The Project is similar to this one

It looks like there is lack of fundamental understanding of flash/ActionScript capabilities.
Your post covers too many topics - forum works the best if questions are focused. You may need to polish your knowledge which will allow you to have answers to some of the problems.
The main thing you should know before proceeding is that one cannot generate swf files at runtime in Flash. And it doesn't matter if you go with Flash or Flex. Should swf generation be a centerpiece of your application, you may want to consider server side compiler.
Otherwise you may not need to generate swfs at all but allow users to see results of their work with help of dynamic content generation including database. In any case, you probably will need and extensive server side application.
