[COLOR=black]Haha, it looks so simple when written out like that… [/COLOR]  
I’ve given it ago myself using Flash CS3 and actionscript 2.0 and come out with this, but it doesnt work?

[COLOR=teal]xmlData = new XML();  
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;  
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;  
xmlData.load(“tracks.xml”);[/COLOR]  
[COLOR=teal]function loadXML (loaded) {  
if (loaded) {  
xmlNode = this.firstChild;  
s = [];  
for (i=0; i\<total; i++) {  
s[1] = xmlNode.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;  
s[2] = xmlNode.childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;  
}  
s1audio();  
}

else {  
error\_txt = “Error Loading Tracks”;  
}  
}[/COLOR]  
[COLOR=teal]//track1  
s1audio = function() {  
\_root.audio\_mc.loadSound(s[1].earl, true);  
}[/COLOR]  
[COLOR=teal]s1\_play.onRelease = function() {  
s1audio();  
}[/COLOR]  
[COLOR=teal]//track2  
s2\_play.onRelease = function() {  
\_root.audio\_mc.loadSound(s[2].earl, true);  
}[/COLOR]

[COLOR=black]Hope someone can help me out here…[/COLOR]  
Thanks in advance,
