Looking for help in an Adobe Animate HTML5 cavas project. I have a simple xml file that I would like the Amount number to populate a dynamic text box. The dynamic text instance name is DayAmount.
XML code:

<Total>

</Total>

Looking for help what code I would need to use to get the JS to display this number.

const xmlStr = '<Total><Amount>$62,000</Amount></Total>';
const parser = new DOMParser();
const doc = parser.parseFromString(xmlStr, "application/xml");

your_tf.text= doc.getElementsByTagName("Amount")[0].childNodes[0]);
