There are some classes out there on the web you can use - I have one that I can send offlist to you if you want where the nodes in the syntax are the actual node names as they should be - not that firstChild crap. OR, wait until Actionscript 3.0 comes out - it has native dot syntax for XML built in (wooo hooo!). You can try it out right now with the Flex 2 beta on the adobe labs site.
