Actionscript

```auto
myTextField.html = true;
var myXMLObject:XML = new XML();
myXMLObject.ignoreWhite = true;
myXMLObject.load("myData.xml");
myXMLObject.onLoad = function() {
    var myText:XMLNode = myXMLObject.childNodes[0];
    if (myText.nodeName == "navigation") {
        for (var count = 0; count<myText.childNodes.length; count++) {
            var currentNode:XMLNode = myText.childNodes[count];
            set("text_"+(count+1), currentNode.childNodes[0].nodeValue);
            set("title_"+(count+1), currentNode.attributes.Title);
            myTextField.text = text_1;
            myTitleText.text = title_1;
        }
    }
};
stop();

```

XML:
