I was hoping someone could tell me how to unload xml correctly. I need to unload an xml file on release of a button, then load new XML. Currently I am unLoading the initial xml by unLoading the target clip. However, when I do this not all of the assets (jpgs) that where loaded with the xml delete form the screen. The following is the code I am currently using. Any help would be great. Thanks.

interactivePortfolio\_btn.onRelease = function() {  
portfolioLabel\_txt.text = “Interactive Portfolio”;  
currentThumb\_mc.unloadMovie()  
portfolio\_xml.load(“XML/interactive.xml”);  
\_parent.description\_txt.text = “”;  
\_parent.info\_txt.text = “”;  
play();  
};
