\<?xml version=‘1.0’ encoding=‘UTF8’?\>  
\<data\>  
\<screen id="" title=""\>  
\<row\>110011101\</row\>  
\<row\>110011101\</row\>  
\<row\>110011101\</row\>  
\<row\>110011101\</row\>  
\<row\>110011101\</row\>  
\</screen\>  
\</data\>

I tried following code, but it’s not working  
var rows:XMLList = temp\_xmldata.children();  
trace(rows.length);
