    XML.Load

      Hi guys,
      I'm going crazy with the XML class for Flash 8.
      I'm new at Flash, so if it's obvious, I humbly apologize!

      I wrote a class which loads an xml file, and "tries" to parse it as an
      array. I have a local variable named text_array, and I attempt to feed
      it from within the onLoad event, dynamically.

      The object that is returned is undefined, and the trace is undefined
      as well. When I place a trace on the line
      text_array[count]=i.firstChild.nodeValue, I get the current value in
      the file.

      I don't get it. I don't see where I'm wrong... Help please....

      TIA,

      Soraya

          Most like the reference to the class instance is lost.

          You need to use the Delegate.create to define the call back to onLoad.

          I like to do that in the constructor.

          You probably also want the class to provide call backs to the code that will use the class.

          Here is a mock-up of the code you could consider
