Hi

I’m having trouble loading a XML file with AS2.0. I’ll copy&paste a reduced version of my XML.

\<?xml version=“1.0” encoding=“iso-8859-1”?\>  
\<jornais\>  
\<!–1977-11-21–\>  
\<mem curto="«Pânico começa em pleno voo»" dia=“1977-11-21” fonte="«teste»" path=“jornais/1977-11-21 Capital Panico comeca em pleno voo.pdf”/\>  
\</jornais\>

The firstChild “jornais” has 41 \<mem\> childNodes. But when i trace the variable that holds th XMLdata it says “35”…

My Actionscript code looks like this:  
var jornEntries:Array = new Array();  
var jornXML:XML = new XML();

jornXML.load (“BaseDados/jornais.xml”);

jornXML.ignoreWhite = true;  
System.useCodepage = true;

jornXML.onLoad = function (success)  
{  
if(success)  
{  
jornEntries = jornXML.firstChild.childNodes;  
loadJornais();  
trace(jornEntries.length);  
}

Please, i’m getting sooooo desperate…  
Thank You
