I can trace everything, but when it coems tothe contentPath, it’s undefined and it doesn’t trace, so it doesn’t load. I’ve been stuck on this for a week. I need help, please!!

Here’s the code. I have a Loader in my library.

Thanks

```auto

//laoding XML and defining the nodes..
function loadXML(loaded) {
    if (loaded) {
        myNode = this.firstChild.childNodes[2].childNodes;
        thumb = [];
        description = [];
        link = [];
        totalS = myNode.length;
        trace("totals:"+totalS);
        for (i=0; i<totalS; i++) {
            description* = myNode*.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
            thumb* = myNode*.childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
            link* = myNode*.childNodes[2].firstChild.nodeValue;
        }
        firstThumb();
        //trace("link:"+myNode*.childNodes[2].firstChild.nodeValue);
    }
    else {
        content = "file not loaded!";
    }
}
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load("myList.xml");
////////////
////////////
function firstThumb() {

//dynamic creates loaders)
    this.createClassObject(mx.controls.Loader, "myThumb", getNextHighestDepth());
    for (j=0; j<totalS; j++) {
        trace("J :"+j)
        thePic = "myThumb"+j;
        trace("thePic: "+thePic);
        trace("myURL: "+link[j]);
        trace("thumbJ: "+thumb[j]);
        
        **thePic.contentPath = thumb[j];
        trace("thePic.contentPath: "+thePic.contentPath);**
        
        thePic.descriptionTXT.text = description[j];
        trace("description:"+description[j]);
    }
}

```
