hi everyone i have problem that i can explain at myself  
i use this xml

\<?xml version=“1.0” encoding=“utf-8” standalone=“yes”?\>  
\<prog\>  
\<sunday\>  
\<pred beg=“9:00” end=“10:00”\>SnowWhite\</pred\>  
\<pred beg=“10:00” end=“11:00”\>X files\</pred\>  
\</sunday\>  
\<monday\>  
\<pred beg=“9:00” end=“10:00”\>SnowWhite\</pred\>  
\<pred beg=“10:00” end=“11:00”\>X Files\</pred\>  
\</monday\>  
\<tuesday\>  
\<pred beg=“9:00” end=“10:00”\>SnowWhite\</pred\>  
\<pred beg=“10:00” end=“11:00”\>X Files\</pred\>  
\</tuesday\>  
\<wedneday\>  
\<pred beg=“9:00” end=“10:00”\>SnowWhite\</pred\>  
\<pred beg=“10:00” end=“11:00”\>X Files\</pred\>  
\</wedneday\>  
\</prog\>

and my flash code:

function loadXML(loaded) {  
if (loaded) {  
xmlNode = this.firstChild;  
trace(xmlNode.childNodes[0].nodeName);  
} else {  
content = “file not loaded!”;  
}  
}  
xmlData = new XML();  
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;  
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;  
xmlData.load(“programa.xml”);

when i use trace(xmlNode.childNodes[0].nodeName); it works  
but if i use trace(xmlNode.childNodes[1].nodeName);  
it isn’t ???  
where is the problem? attributes?
