OK…

This is so basic but I just can’t get XML to talk to Flash for me. ;(  
I want Flash to grab the one & only elements from XML, load it into my player (which works) & play it automatically.

Anything obvious? I’m confused.

Here’s my AS

```auto

var vList:XML = new XML(); 
vList.ignoreWhite = true; 
vList.load('oneVideo.xml'); 

vList.onLoad = function(){     
ns.play(0);

};

```

XML

```auto

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<videos 
theVideo="videos/1.flv"/>

</videos>

```
