XML-Based Birthday Board

programming flash
1

Hi guys,
I really need help with this because I am really an idiot at actionscripting. Have tried for ages but to no avail.
Description of brief:
Creating a Birthday Board which will show all the names of the Birthday boys and girls in a certain Month. ie. (the numbers in square brackets refers to the actual day of birthday)

Birthday Board
<- March ->
[08] Bday Person1
[13] Bday Person2
[25] Bday Person3

Users are able to click the arrowheads to navigate the months. Months and Names are controlled
by xml in the following format:

<?xml version = “1.0”?>

Current status: I managed to get the basic functions like making the months and names appear from modifying an existing script. And I am able to navigate between the months. As you can see from the xml above, I am showing Birthdays of people from the month of March - July.
Requirement: I am planning on inserting the birthday dates of people for the whole year, which means from January to December, that is easy to add on but I require my Birthday board to show the current month ie.April upon loading. I have written a function to retrieve the current month from the system but I do not know how to apply that to my exisiting script. The function i have written is as below:

function loadmonth() {
 var myDate:Date = new Date();
 var currentMonth:Number = myDate.getMonth()+1;
 trace("currentMonth = "+currentMonth);
 if (currentMonth == 1) {
  bdayMonth = "January";
 } else if (currentMonth == 2) {
  bdayMonth = "February";
 } else if (currentMonth == 3) {
  bdayMonth = "March";
 } else if (currentMonth == 4) {
  bdayMonth = "April";
 } else if (currentMonth == 5) {
  bdayMonth = "May";
 } else if (currentMonth == 6) {
  bdayMonth = "June";
 } else if (currentMonth == 7) {
  bdayMonth = "July";
 } else if (currentMonth == 8) {
  bdayMonth = "August";
 } else if (currentMonth == 9) {
  bdayMonth = "September";
 } else if (currentMonth == 10) {
  bdayMonth = "October";
 } else if (currentMonth == 11) {
  bdayMonth = "November";
 } else if (currentMonth == 12) {
  bdayMonth = "December";
 }
 trace("bdayMonth = "+bdayMonth);
}

Can someone help me please? I think this is quite easy for expert developers to know where to insert the relevant script but for me, I even have problems understanding my present actionscript. Please find attachment and place both the .fla and .xml in the same folder.
Thanks in advance!!
