XML Menu with subMenu

programming flash
1

I am having a hard time trying to create a sub-menu using xml. The main menu works but the sub-menu is not being populated. Here is the AS and the XML

Object.registerClass ("item1",src.button);
Object.registerClass ("item2",src.button);
Object.registerClass ("item3",src.button);
Object.registerClass ("item4",src.button);

import src.button;

var item1:button;
var item2:button;
var item3:button;
var item4:button;

var space:Number = 5;
var TotalButtons:Number = 5;

function loadXML (loaded)
{
    if (loaded) {
        xmlNode = this.firstChild;
        GenerateMenu(xmlNode);
    } else {
        trace ("file not loaded!");
    }
}
xmlData = new XML ();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load ("src/menu.xml");

function ShowSubNav(p) {
    this.mcSubNav.txtField.htmlText = "";
    for (b = p; b < totalSubNav; b++) {
        
        trace(mcSubNav.txtField.htmlText );
    }
};


GenerateMenu = function(node_xml) {

    var curr_node;
    var curr_item = [];
    var totalNodes = node_xml.childNodes.length;

    for (var i=0; i<totalNodes; i++) {

        curr_node = node_xml.childNodes*;
        curr_item.name = curr_node.attributes.name;
        curr_item.subLabel = curr_node.attributes.subLabel;
        curr_item.link = curr_node.attributes.link;
        
        this["item" + i].Labels = curr_item.name;
        this["item" + i].SubLabels = curr_item.subLabel;
        

         subNav = node_xml.childNodes*;
        totalSubNav = subNav.childNodes.length;
        trace(subNav.childNodes*.nodeName)    
        this["item" + i].onRollOver = curr_item.onDragOver = function(){
            this.over();
            if (subNav.nodeName == "item")
            {            
                
                for (j=0;j<totalSubNav;j++)
                {
                    mcSubNav.txtField.htmlText += "<FONT><u><a href='http://"+curr_item.sublink+"'target='_blank'>"+curr_item.name+"</a></u></FONT> - ";                 
                }
            }else{ 
                mcSubNav.txtField.htmlText = "";                
                curr_item.onRollOver = curr_item.onDragOver = function(){
            
            };
        }
        }
    } 
    
};
