How do I create an array from an XML file.

Code:

< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<songs>
<song name="Pixel2Life Soundtrack 01" file="music/despair.mp3" >
</song><song name="Twodded Soundtrack 01" file="music/forest.mp3" >
</song></songs>

Usually I create the array manually.

Code:

var songs:Array = ["smusic/despair.mp3", "music/forest.mp3"];

I don't know much about flash/xml, but I guess your are trying to achieve something like this. http://www.*******************/?item=jw_flv_media_player, the source is also available

Hey nikos101, all that you neded to do in this case is just edit a sample xml file(comes along with the zip) to point to your song files.
