Hello,  
I have a XML drop down menu working which I found here, but have rushed ahead and built the whole site thinking I’d simply be able to make it load in XMLs as opposed to swf’s. I have had a menu before like this and it was a simple change, but I’ve got myself into a hole and I need to get this sussed before the end of tomorrow or I’m trouble.

THis is the link if your not familier with the menu…

The below works great but I simply just need it to read in XMLs instead or swfs and jpegs. So the ‘parent.content’ bit is irrelevant in this case.

```auto
onClipEvent (load)
{
    function executeAction(action)
    {
	
loadMovie( action , _parent.content);

		
				
		/*
		Uncomment the above line to get the menu working
		and add a content mc on the stage (with the instance name "content") to
		load in your stuff (swf's, jpg's, etc).
		*/

```

I really hope someone can help. Thanks…
