So I have this code… can anyone suggest some augmentation on the code so that I can have a condition that tests that all the attributes are loaded before showing all of them at the same time…

```auto
var xml:XML = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;
xml.onLoad = function() {
	var nodes = this.firstChild.childNodes;
	numOfItems = nodes.length;
	for (var i = 0; i<numOfItems; i++) {
		var t = home.attachMovie("item", "item"+i, i+1);
		t.icon.inner.loadMovie(nodes*.attributes.image);
		t.r.inner.loadMovie(nodes*.attributes.image);
    }
}

```

Thanks in advance…
