Hi all, this is my first post here!

I have a odd problem with flash 8:  
When I load a xml in as2, flash doesn’t wait for it to complete and will execute next lines. I need lines to be executed _AFTER_ full xml parse, and it should _NOT_ call any functions, like using onload to execute any other functions on success load.

Any idea?
