First off here is my code:

```auto
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xmlData:XML = new XML();

xmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, LoadXML);

xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("Content.xml"));

function LoadXML(e:Event):void {

    xmlData = new XML(e.target.data);
    ParseContent(xmlData);

}
function ParseContent(contentInput:XML):void {
    instructions_mc.polygonTxt.text = xmlData
    trace("XML Output");
    trace("------------------------");
    trace(contentInput);

}

```

now as you can see I have my dynamic text field in a mc as: instructions\_mc.polygonTxt.text = xmlData

but this returns all of the xml doc as it appears in the output. How do I remedy this, as to say what is the correct path I am needing ;(? I would like to use the same xml file to populate several dynamic text fields already on the stage…

Please help! Thanks!
