subnodes = nodes.childnodes
this.ref["heading"+i].text = subnodes[0].firstchild.tostring()

hi debriscreator,

maybe forgot post "geturl" loads url
current browser window (like regular http request). it's not used load
xml data. if attempt load xml document being made, it's
coincidence. verify what's going on, grab web debugging proxy
like fiddler or charles. charles commercial *much* better flash.
in event, both should this. run program , run
code. watch requests being made computer. code
requesting url or xml document? if xml request being sent,
what's return error code? should 200. if it's 404 (not found),
it means xml document not think should be. have
look @ full url path (you can right-click , copy full
path), paste browser , try load there.
it's not think is. finally, may security error
(crossdomain or similar). check see if request being made
for crossdomain.xml file...this indicates flash looking
for 1 , if doesn't find it, request cancelled.

hope helps.
