i made an XML to be loaded in flash

Code

```auto
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<gallery>
<galleryName id = "Schools"> 
<images>
    <pic>
        <image>images/1.jpg</image>
        <description>Hello</description>
        <thumbnail>thumb/1.jpg</thumbnail>
    </pic>
 
    <pic>
        <image>images/2.jpg</image>
        <description>Hi</description>
        <thumbnail>thumb/2.jpg</thumbnail>
    </pic>
 
    <pic>
         <image>images/3.jpg</image>
        <description>Hey</description>
        <thumbnail>thumb/3.jpg</thumbnail>
    </pic>
 
</images>
 
</galleryName>
</gallery>
 

```

so i trace galleryname

```auto
galleryName= xmlNode.childNodes*.attributes.id;

```

which is right but when i trace image using this code in flash

```auto
image* = xmlNode.childNodes*.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;

```

it gives me null?!!!

can you have a look  
Thanks!
