Why can't APIs just use standard XML structure and not complicate things with attributes and namespaces.

Anyway I'm once again struggling with a weather XML feed and namespaces.

the XML looks like:
Code:
<aws:weather xmlns:aws="http://www.aws.com/aws">
  <aws:api version="2.0"/>
  <aws:WebURL>http://weather.weatherbug.com/GA/Marietta-weather.html?ZCode=Z5546&amp;Units=0&amp;stat=MRTTS</aws:WebURL>
  <aws:InputLocationURL>http://weather.weatherbug.com/GA/Marietta-weather.html?ZCode=Z5546&amp;Units=0</aws:InputLocationURL>

I've found an example at http://animateinexile.blogspot.com/2...on-in-xml.html

but when I try this I get an error that AS is expecting a variable at that line(xmlData..bug::["temp-high"]);).

PHP Code:
function loadXML(e:Event){
    var xmlData:XML = new XML(e.target.data);
    xmlData.ignoreWhitespace=true;
    var bug:Namespace = new Namespace("http://www.aws.com/aws");
    trace(xmlData..bug::["temp-high"]);
    //trace(xmlData);
    }
function io_error(e:Event){
    trace("error");
    }
