        <desc><p>The documentation team released a cool new version of the Adobe Flash Platform Language Reference (which includes all APIs from the following products:</p></desc>
        <url>logo/logo1.png</url>
        <links>http://www.google.com/</links>
    </content>

```

and this is my code

```auto
function LoadXML(e:Event):void {
    xmlData = new XML(e.target.data);
    
    // count total xml nodes and store
    totalNodes = xmlData.content.length();
    
    var myDesc:String = xmlData.content.desc.text();
    var myLink:String = xmlData.content.links.text();
    trace (myDesc); // this does not work
    createMovies(totalNodes);
}

```

While i trace myDesc it does not show any text. Any help.
