Hi,
thank you all.
I've managed to do it like this, based on what Cor wrote me:
function clickItemTitle(e:Event):void {
_link = String(e.target.frameLink);
var node:int;
for (var i:Number = 0; i < conteudo.length(); i++)
{
if (conteudo[...@id == _link)
{
node = i;
}
}
trace ("node: " + node);
then I just use conteudo[node] to access the content.
I was trying to do that without using a for loop , but maybe it
wouldn't be possible. anyway I believe there's no need to avoid a loop
here, even if there's 1200 nodes in my XML, right?
Allandt, I actually didn't understand the use of toXMLString(), at
least in this situation..
cheers!

also if you're tracing xml, you could try trace(myXML.toXMLString());
which will make sure that even the root node of the xml is traced
