do you just want/need one 'group' of data with those values in it?

or will there be MULTIPLE groups/object (nodes) each with their own class, subject..etc in it?

[whispers]

it could be as simple as this (AS2.0)

var total:Number;
var myXML:XML = new XML();
myXML.ignoreWhite = true;

myXML.onLoad = function(success){
	if(!success){
		trace("XML failed to load");
	}else{
		trace("XML LOADED.....parsing data now.");
		total = +myXML.firstChild.childNodes.length;
		for(i=0; i<total; i++){
			var xClass = myXML.firstChild.childNodes[i].attributes.xClass;
			var xSubject = myXML.firstChild.childNodes[i].attributes.xSubject;
			var xChapter = myXML.firstChild.childNodes[i].attributes.xChapter;
			var xDesc = myXML.firstChild.childNodes[i].attributes.xDesc;

			//example for putting the data into a text field
			eval("classField_"+i).text = xClass;
			eval("subjectField_"+i).text = xSubject;
			eval("chapterField_"+i).text = xChapter;
			eval("descField_"+i).text = xDesc;
			
		}
	}
}
myXML.load("data.xml");

XML:

<data>
    <entry xClass="Math" xSubject="Geometry" xChapter="1" xDesc="Intro 101 to shapes" />
    <entry xClass="English" xSubject="Nouns" xChapter="5" xDesc="Learning to write" />
    <entry xClass="Science" xSubject="Chemistry" xChapter="3" xDesc="Period Table" />
</data>

//var total:Number;
var myXML:XML = new XML();
myXML.ignoreWhite = true;

myXML.onLoad = function(success) {
	if (!success) {
		trace("XML failed to load");
	} else {
		// 'class' is a reserved word, change variable in textfield to 'xclass'
		xclass = myXML.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0];
		subject = myXML.firstChild.childNodes[1].childNodes[0];
		chapter = myXML.firstChild.childNodes[2].childNodes[0];
		description = myXML.firstChild.childNodes[3].childNodes[0];
	}
};
myXML.load("skof.xml");

/*<skof>
<class>IX</class>
<subject>Biology</subject>
<chapter>The Fundamental Unit Of Life</chapter>
<description>The Smallest biulding block of life</description>
</skof>*/

you dont need the: var total:Number; line in there anymore..

since there is no loop any longer.

I want to create a flash presentation to launch powerpoint presentation through buttons on the flash presentation.

the presentation contains 2 movies - a). the skin movie with exit button on it.
b). the menu movie with buttons of various topics on it.

I want to load them both together (both at one time) such that the menu movie is behind the skin movie.

The path from where these movies are to be loaded is saved in an XML document.

Now I want to load these movies together with the help of XML prasing.

Please help me.
