First steps, can't load externe file

[skalie]

/////Edit: found it
///// seems that I had to call the function without the "()"s
///// weird, but at least I know what was causing the trouble

this gives a result

var staticXML:XML = new XML("<modules><module><ID>1</ID><Module_title>name 1</Module_title></module></modules>");
trace(staticXML.firstChild); 

but if I put the xml in an external file (includes/modules.xml)and run this

code:

---

function init(){

	trace("xml loaded successfully");

	moduleXML.ignoreWhite = true;

	trace (moduleXML.firstChild);

}

var moduleXML = new XML();

moduleXML.load("includes/modules.xml");

moduleXML.onLoad = init(); /// *****should be "init;" not "init();"

---

I get a big "null".

TIA
