Hi,

Ive been trying to get the xml/flash gallery tutorial to work using the rss from a Flickr image account instead of the format of xml file included in the tutorial download.

Try as I might I cant understand how to call information from the specific nodes that contain the picture information.

[The Flickr XML source](http://www.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?id=18936206@N00&format=rss_200)

It has a lot of information at the beginning of the file to do with the Flickr account details, which i want to ignore. The \<item\> tag is the one im interested in.

My guess was that it had to do with changing

```auto
xmlNode = this.firstChild;

```

I’ve tried using xml.nodeName, and looked right through all the xml part of the actionscript dictionary, but no luck.

Anyone have any idea how to sort this

Thanks
