```auto
 
var xmlDoc:XML = new XML(); 
System.useCodepage = true; 
xmlDoc.ignoreWhite = true; 
xmlDoc.onLoad = function(ok:Boolean) { 
if (ok) { 
doMenu(this); 
} else { 
trace("XML did not load"); 
} 
}; 
xmlDoc.load("playlist.xml"); 
function doMenu(xml:XML) { 
var num:Number = xml.firstChild.childNodes.length; 
ads = new Array(); 
for (var i = 0; i < num; i++) { 
ads* = xml.firstChild.childNodes*.attributes.image; 
} 
loadMovie(ads*,1);
