Hi all, first of all I'm using Flash MX and it's first time I use xml, and I'm preparing two buttons in flash getting url from a xml file... Doesn't work, of course... Can you help me please?

That's the xml file code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<menu>
<url>http://www.myebsite.it/web/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=212&I temid=262</url>
<url>http://www.mywebsite.it/web/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=212&I temid=262</url>
</menu>

Here the script in flash:
myXML = new XML();
myXML.onLoad = function(success) {
	
if (!
success) {
	
	
trace("XMLfailed to load");
	
} else {
	
	
trace("load was good");
	
	
link1 myXML.firstChild.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
	
	
link2 myXML.firstChild.childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
	
}
};
And of course the buttons have:
on (press) {
   
getURL(link1"_self");
}

on (press) {
  
getURL(link2"_self");
}
I really apreciate any kind of help, I'm doing it for a friend website but I'm not a pro and I'm gettin' mad!
Thanks a lot!!!
