    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;
    }
    };
    myXML.load("links.xml");

    And of course the buttons have:
    on (press) {
    getURL(link1, "_self");
    }

    and

    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!!!
