Problem with pushing xml child attribute to an empty array

Hi guys,

I have another problem with putting, or shall I say, pushing data from xml to an empty array I previously declared.

During the xml_mc.onload, I can see the data, but after that, it becomes undefined.

It seems like I could not find the solution on the net as well. I suspect it is not possible, but I wont give up.

Please help me.

Thanks.

This is the code sample:

var myarray=new Array();

var xml1:XML = new XML();

xml1.ignoreWhite=true;

xml1.onLoad = function(success:Boolean){

          if(success){

      var nodes = this.firstChild.childNodes;

                    for (i=0; i<nodes.length; i++){

               myarray=nodes.attributes.name;

                    }

         text1.text=myarray[2];  // *******************************to check if the attribute "name" is visible

          } else {

                    trace("Could not load XML");

          }

}

xml1.load("icons.xml");

text1.text=myarray[2]; // *******************************I commented the first  text to try to view again, and result was UNDEFINED..........

the xml would look like this:

icons.xml

<icons>

     <icon name="icon1" />

     <icon name="icon2" />

     <icon name="icon3" />

     <icon name="icon4" />

</icons>

thanks
