I am trying to figure out how to read an XML file containing a list of the swfs I want to import, pause for 8 seconds to allow the swf to run and then continue the loop with the next swf.

I am reading the XML correctly but I am having an issue creating the timer to pause the for loop for 8 seconds between slide.
