> var xmlObject = new XML();
> xmlObject.ignoreWhite = true;
> xmlObject.onLoad = Delegate.create(this, loadSuccess);
> xmlObject.load("home.xml")

> and the delegate function just moves the playhead once the file is
> loaded - when I get to the frame after it's loaded, I do a trace on
> theXML and see the truncation as described.
