[AS]  
xml\_data = new XML(event.target.data);  
data\_result = (xml\_data.server.connection).toString();  
[/AS]

This codesnippet returns data from an XML document but I need to make the part server.connection dynamic, as a variable string. Instead it could be _xml\_data.server.serverURL_. I´ve looked at examples on net and here on [Kirupa](http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=259717) but still - Nope. :-/
